What are the passport control and security procedures?
A. Passport control is now undertaken before boarding. At St Pancras Int’l security X-ray screening takes place immediately after check-in followed by passport control. At Paris-Nord passport control takes place immediately after check-in followed by security. At Bruxelles-Midi there are two separate passport control checks, one before security and one after. At Lille-Europe passport control takes place prior to check-in. For journeys to the UK, if you are not a UK/EU citizen then you should complete a UK landing card prior to check-in (available from staff or displayed in racks near the check-in areas) and present to British Immigration officers. There is currently no passport control either on-board the train or on arrival at any Eurostar station.
