France lifts restrictions on entry of Russians

Russian citizens no longer need vaccination certificates and tests, to enter France, according to a statement from the French consulate in Russia.

“To enter France from Russia, negative results of PCR or antigen tests are no longer required. An international travel certificate and proof of valid reasons for entry are no longer required,” the diplomatic mission said in a statement.

In addition, on April 1, France resumed issuing all types of visas to Russians. Applications are open at the 18 VFS Global Visa Application Centers in Russia.

Due to sanctions against Russia, there are currently no direct flights to France. You can get there through Istanbul, Bahrain or Dubai.
