Information Customs Service

The answer to your question may be on our website:

Where can I get information about my travel between France and Switzerland or Liechtenstein?

Since October 30, 2020, travel on French territory is only possible in certain specific cases and only with a certificate.

The regulations relating to the movement of persons do not fall within the remit of Customs but you can find useful information about your movements in France from Switzerland or Liechtenstein on the website of the French Embassy in Bern:

For your trips to Switzerland or Liechtenstein from France, find useful information on the website of the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs, as well as on the Re-open sites of the European Union and service-public.fr:

We also remind you that the conditions of shipment of packages are strongly disrupted. In case of late delivery, please consult the website of your provider regarding the delivery times applicable during the period.

We thank you for your understanding and make every effort to ensure the best service.

Presentation of Customs Information Service with Hervé brouillard:
 
Hello my name is Hervé brouillard, I am the head of customs information services. Service is the information center for the users of the French customs which is based in the north of France in Valenciennes, we inform all the users of the customs whatever their questions. Individuals as professionals we have questions from all walks of life that come from all over the world of France since people travel, people move and people buy and we are questioned both from abroad and from France. The questions of individuals mainly concern competitions, recruitment, moves and purchases of goods on the Internet since today everyone wants to buy on the Internet and therefore users ask questions to know what they will pay, how will be delivered their packages and what are the constraints for delivery. We also have a lot of questions about tourism since as of Friday, people want to go on weekends and often want to know how much they will be able to bring back cartridges of cigarettes, bottles of alcohol either in Luxembourg or in Spain or from a trip further away for professionals we are at their disposal to inform them about their import or export operations many people want to enter international trade and question us to know the customs taxation that will apply to the import of their products but also other taxes such as taxes on alcohol, drinks and petroleum products for example then we also inform since it is part of the missions of the customs administration on all environmental taxation we are asked about the general tax on polluting activities on the taxation of electricity, coal and gas to inform all French and foreign operators who want to settle in our territory
