  • 2016 Results
    2016 Results Protecting citizens and consumers, supporting businesses FOREWORD 2016 was another milestone year for French Customs. For the first time in nearly a century, French Customs officers marched in the traditional 14 July parade on Paris’s Champs-Elysées. This was an expression of the nation’s gratitude to French Customs and its staff, who are fully involved in the fight against terrorism, working alongside the other government departments that help keep France secure. This recognition also took the form of a plan to bolster French Customs’ resources to allow it to more effectively combat terrorism. Half of the 1,000 additional hires announced by President Hollande for 2016 and 2017 have already been assigned to operational surveillance units, and the rest will join them in 2017 as soon as their training is completed. Operational units will also receive additional weapons, bullet-resistant apparel and detection equipment. IT systems to combat fraud and to assist communication between surveillance teams are also being deployed. In 2016, we achieved remarkable results in terms of combating every form of trafficking and illegal financial flows. After the record seizures of narcotics and smuggled tobacco in 2015, the past year’s results remained at very high levels. In several areas, we broke records: nearly €150 million in criminal assets were seized or identified (a 170% increase over 2015), and more than 9 million counterfeit items were intercepted. These excellent results are a reminder that French Customs’ protection efforts extend to the full range of threats to France. The new Union Customs Code entered into effect in 2016.

  • PONANT Returns to Sea Today with an Ultra-Reinforced Health Protocol
    PONANT returns to sea today with an ultra-reinforced health protocol Saturday 11 July 2020 - Today, PONANT is one of the first cruise lines in the world to resume its operations. The reference in Ocean Voyages aboard small cruising yachts has developed a rigorous health protocol to guarantee a safe sailing experience. Eight of the ships in the fleet are setting sail from France, Iceland or French Polynesia. Others should follow in the coming weeks. France is beautiful from the sea, a unique collection of summer 2020 cruises To adapt to the current situation and the new demand, the company has reinvented its offering with 5 new exceptional itineraries along the French coast, well off the beaten track. As an ambassador of the French way of life, PONANT is inviting its guests to rediscover the richness and diversity of France this summer. With a fleet of smaller-sized ships accommodating an average of 150 guests, the company remains true to its core principle of responsible and sustainable tourism. PONANT is drawing on the expertise of its captains, all natives of France and its regions, and relying on the precious assistance of its partners, keepers of the natural, cultural, and gastronomic heritage of the different regions. The company will reveal France differently, from the sea, through a series of new sailing routes and tailored activities in unspoiled nature (outings in Zodiac dinghies or canoes, diving and snorkelling, kayakink, paddle-boarding, hiking, and more). Each experience will be enriched by PONANT’s expert naturalists, who will provide explanations during the outings and share their knowledge during lectures held beforehand.

  • How the British Have Made Southwest France Their Home the Local [email protected] @Thelocalfrance
    How the British have made southwest France their home The Local [email protected] @thelocalfrance 6 October 2017 08:26 CEST+02:00 brits in france Share this article Photo: AFP The Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of western and southwest France is home to the most Brits of all France's regions. Here’s a breakdown of how they have made the region, or at least part of it, their home. Nouvelle-Aquitaine was recently formed when the government redrew the administrative map of France, bringing together the old regions of Aquitaine, Poitou- Charentes and Limousin. The super-region stretches from the Spanish border in the southwest up the Atlantic coast to La Rochelle and deep into central France to take in the departments of Correze and Creuse. It includes departments,that have long been associated with migrating British citizens, such as Dordogne (Dordogneshire to many), and Charente. The Numbers: There are some 39,000 British citizens living in the giant Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, a new report from French statistics agency INSEE reveals. That represents 0.7 percent of the region's overall population and means that after the Portuguese, Brits represent the second biggest community of foreigners. Those 39,000 represent 26 percent of the 150,000 Brits officially registered as living in France. That makes Nouvelle-Aquitaine the region of France that is home to the most Brits. In second place is neighbouring Occitanie, which is home to 25,500 Brits, and in third place is the greater Paris region of Ile-de-France where 19,500 Brits have set up home.
