News New measures - From tomorrow Saturday 3rd April all French departments will be subject to the same rules and restrictions, almost identical to those that applied until now in 19 departments. The 7pm curfew will be maintained in the whole of France; no outing is authorized except for one of the eight derogatory reasons mentioned on the certificates which are for:
Between 6am and 7pm, everyone is allowed to circulate freely in public provided they do not go more than 10 km from their place of residence as the crow flies. Unlike the previous lockdowns, these outdoor trips are authorized "without any time limit": an identity document or any other proof of address will be requested. Trips of more than 10 km under certain conditions If you wish to venture beyond a radius of 10 km during the day, you must be in possession of a completed exceptional travel certificate. The reasons allowing you to travel within your department or in neighboring departments located less than 30km from your home are:
You can also travel without limitation of distance by ticking one of the following reasons:
Meetings in small groups outdoors Gatherings in public spaces must be limited to six people, with a few exceptions (large families, funerals, declared events, public ceremonies, professional activities, supervised sporting activities, transport). New for this month of April: alcohol consumption on public roads, especially in parks and in front of bars, is no longer authorized. Emmanuel Macron calls on the French, to "avoid private gatherings, parties with friends, family, relatives", especially at home.

Other businesses wishing to maintain an activity must be satisfied with delivery or "click and collect". Travel tolerated during the Easter weekend This tolerance "ends Monday evening", April 5th, according to the Ministry of the Interior, which specifies that it "concerns only travel during the day, to go to spend the next few weeks in a place of your choice". The curfew rules will thus remain valid during Easter weekend. Childcare and childminders – Concerning childcare and childminders the decision has not yet been resolved and the French government is expected to make an announcement today. The Prime Minister had initially indicated that childminders could no longer welcome children.
