Thanks.askmeplz82 wrote:according to french consulate website
The foreign spouse of a EU national (except French national) may enter France without visa if holding :
- A valid travel document ;
- A valid UK residence permit with the endorsement "family member of EEA national" (this endorsement is compulsory to be visa exempted) ;
- and if they are joining or travelling with the EU national.

Yes, I have seen that but what about the EU directive about being able to travel with a residence permit. Do i need a visa or not?
Thank you, you have given me a fresh breath of life. the rules are so ambiguous that i would have kept scratching my head until someone like you who had travelled before in a similar circumstance had confirmed. yes i am travelling by eurostar so all should be fine. Thanks again and Merry Xmas.fatimahh wrote:Are you travelling with Eurostar? i never had any problem traveling to France with my hubby who is French and this without visa. Mind you they never even asked for our Mariage certificate, they seem to know a lot as to EEA RC. And mind you, i once travel on my own and the French officer told me i need to be with my husband for them to let me in. then i told them he was already in france and i was joining him for holiday, after speaking with his colleague and his superior they finally let me in. If you going that way be ready to fight your case lool so show up early at the gate.
If travelling via road - Dover, then i travelled this way too and they never asked me any question on my way to France the just collect passport and stamped it.
hope my experience help.
