France remains at risk of terrorist attacks. The national security alert system – Vigipirate - is currently at the second level of “Reinforced security – risk of attack”. It is a state of enhanced vigilance and security that allows the authorities to employ additional security measures in specific areas affected by the threat. Demonstrations can take place without notice in France. These can occasionally turn violent and disrupt traffic and public transportation. Singaporeans are advised to avoid such protests, heed the instructions of local authorities, and exercise vigilance.
As always, Singaporeans are encouraged to eRegister with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs so that we can contact you should the need arise. Singaporeans are also advised to stay in touch with your family and friends so that they know you are safe. Purchase comprehensive travel and medical insurance and be familiar with the terms and coverage.
