France on a one-way ticket

Post Thu Dec 02, 2004 1:29 pm

Does anyone know if I will have troubles entering France on a one-way ticket? I have a working-holiday visa and a bank statement to show that I have enough saved for a flight home. I have gone to Germany before on a one-way ticket and it was no problem but I'm not sure if France will be the same.

ANY advice would be GREAT!

Thanks

I think it'll be alright, especially if you've got other documentation. If you tried to enter with no proof of funds and a one way ticket, it'd definitely be more difficult.

And if it worked in Germany I'd think it would probably work in France as well, as they probably have similar EU regulated rules.

I could be wrong though :)

Just make sure that you have your visa in place and proof of funds. When I went to Northern Africa I was forced to change my ticket (which was a year return) to a 3 month return when I got to London (no one else along the way seemed to notice!)
All the best!

Hi all,

Last time I came back from N-America to France was through the states and they did not want me to check in at the counter unless I had a return ticket with a 3 month validity. Which I did not have since I came from France in the first place.
So unless you have a proper visa you might get into trouble. My advice: Call the embassy.
