CDG- Paris- How long on arrival to clear customs?

[lovetravellingoz]

Hi all,

My first time flying into CDG Airport in Paris will be this June.
As I have to travel onward by train I was wondering what typical times were to collect bags and clear customs at this airport is?

Arrival is 7am on a Saturday.

Thanks.

Depends on the terminal really. Took me half an hour (early morning weekday) but it was quite deserted and customs and immigrations didn't bat an eyelid. IIRC the immigration lad was filling out a crossword when we walked up and looked as us like stupid foreigners.

This was 2D (I think). Note if you are arriving in terminal 2, you have a stupidly long walk to the airport train station which will take you longer than it takes to clear customs.

Thank you. We are flying in with Thai from Bangkok.
