You now face being detained and returned to France if you arrive in the UK on a small boat.

Do not waste your money or risk your life.

If you try to come to the UK illegally by small boat, you now face being returned to France.

People smugglers say they can get you to the UK safely and that you will be allowed to stay. They are telling you lies.

Under the new Treaty between the UK and France, we will send you back to France and the smugglers will still take your money.

Too many men, women and children have already died trying to get to the UK on overcrowded small boats. It is now far more dangerous than before.

Trying to enter the UK illegally is never worth it. You face detention and removal from the UK.

If you have a history of criminal activity, previous asylum claims in other countries, or are lying about your identity, you should know that we will capture your fingerprints and images of your face, which will be checked against our databases, so we will know who you are and take action against you.

Don’t risk your life or waste your money. You could lose everything.
