Checked on 4 November 2026. Information for French passport holders planning a tourist visit; other nationalities and circumstances require their own checks. Recheck the official sources before booking and departing.
Eligible French travellers need an electronic or biometric passport and an approved ESTA for a visa-waiver tourist stay of up to 90 days, including transit. Apply when planning the trip, at least 72 hours before departure. ESTA does not guarantee admission.
Eligibility depends on nationality, travel history and purpose. A visit to Cuba on or after 12 January 2021 generally prevents use of ESTA. Other exclusions apply: check the full official list and allow time for a visa if required.
Check medical and repatriation cover, cancellation terms, local transport and the final price including taxes and mandatory charges. For outdoor visits, check weather, access and local alerts.
