Home | French Legislation Articles | French Code governing the entry and residence of foreign nationals and the right of asylum | Legislative part | Book III: ENTRY TO FRANCE | Title II: ADMINISTRATIVE BAN ON TERRITORY
In accordance with article L. 223-1, the provisions of this Title apply to foreign nationals whose situation is governed by Book II.
Any foreign national who does not habitually reside in France and is not present on French territory may be subject to an administrative ban on entry if their presence in France would constitute a serious threat to public order, internal security or France’s international relations. .
The administrative ban on entry is the subject of a written decision issued after a non-adversarial procedure. Reasons shall be given for the decision, unless this is contrary to considerations of national security.If the foreign national has entered France when he or she has not already been notified of the decision to impose an administrative ban on entry, he or she shall be notified of this decision on French territory.
A foreign national who is the subject of an administrative ban on entry and who is preparing to enter France may be refused entry, under the conditions laid down in Title III.
When a foreign national who is subject to an administrative ban on entry is present on French territory, he may be deported automatically to the border under the conditions laid down in Book VII.This article does not apply to foreign nationals who are minors. .
The administrative authority may revoke the administrative inadmissibility order at any time. The foreign national may submit a request to lift the measure after a period of one year from its issue. Silence kept for more than four months on the request for lifting shall be deemed a decision to reject.
Without prejudice to the provisions of article L. 323-1, the grounds for an administrative ban on entry are reviewed every five years from the date of the decision.
