Rules in force · 6Pavements are narrow and the heat is high
- French Polynesia ↗Entry rules are set by France but separately from Schengen: EU citizens enter freely, other passports should check the French government's rules for French Polynesia, and an onward ticket is required.
- French Polynesia ↗Declare food, plants and animal products on arrival; moving plants and soil between islands is also restricted.
- French Polynesia ↗Drive on the right, as in France; scooters and cars can be hired on the main islands.
- Tahiti and Moorea ↗Moorea ferries can be cancelled or delayed in rough weather: keep a buffer before an international flight.
- Papeete ↗Pavements are narrow and the heat is high: bags go from the car to the door, never on a walk.
- Papeete ↗After dark, take a taxi door to door outside the waterfront; the quiet streets behind the centre are poorly lit.
