Our Tunnel Crossing Monday September 20th,Interesting.

[MandP]

We crossed at 09.20 last Monday.Thought it interesting that the only documents we were asked for by both the English and French Customs at Folkestone were our passports plus they checked the gas was turned off.Straight off the Tunnel at Calais and onto the main roads.No checks in France at all.
Thought the very least we would be asked for would be proof of vaccination, but no, nothing

We crossed on the 12th and had exactly the same treatment. Passports and gas check. That was all.

Is this because you uploaded everything on to their website beforehand?

Presumably they scanned and/or stamped the passports to be able to check up when you return how many days you'll have spent 'over there'.

We travelled on this day & hadn't been able to upload our declaration d'honeur, so we filled the form in when we checked in at pet passport & showed it to French customs. Took 2 hours from arriving at Folkestone Tunnel to getting on the train.

Thanks..but 2hrs ! Was this because you couldn't upload your declaration beforehand?
We're hoping to go next month and want everything to run as smoothly as possible

No that didn't cause any holdup at all. It was just a very slow process. Only check was gas being turned off.

No, I wouldn’t know how to do that. We have the required paperwork with us but didn’t get asked for any of it. Just passports and has check.
