Passports

All Canadian, U.K., and U.S. citizens—even infants—need only a valid passport to enter France for stays of up to 90 days.

It's helpful to have the address of your accommodation in France on hand upon arrival.

You must apply in person if you're getting a passport for the first time; if your previous passport was lost, stolen, or damaged; or if your previous passport has expired and was issued more than 15 years ago or when you were under 16. All children under 18 must appear in person to apply for or renew a passport. Both parents must accompany any child under 14 (or send a notarized statement with their permission) and provide proof of their relationship to the child.
