Article L741-7 of the French Code governing the entry and residence of foreign nationals and the right of asylum

The decision to place the foreign national in detention may not be taken before seven days have elapsed since the end of a previous detention order made with a view to enforcing the same measure. However, if this previous detention was terminated due to the foreign national’s evasion of the surveillance measures to which he or she was subject, the administrative authority may decide on a new detention order before the expiry of this period.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article L741-7


La décision de placement en rétention ne peut être prise avant l’expiration d’un délai de sept jours à compter du terme d’un précédent placement prononcé en vue de l’exécution de la même mesure. Toutefois, si ce précédent placement a pris fin en raison de la soustraction de l’étranger aux mesures de surveillance dont il faisait l’objet, l’autorité administrative peut décider d’un nouveau placement en rétention avant l’expiration de ce délai.
