hegemon88 - The AIP references you were looking for are:

France AIP GEN 1.2: All aircraft arriving from abroad must carry out its first landing at an airport provided with controls of customs, police and health. Also all aircraft leaving the French territory for abroad must make their last stop in the French territory at such an airport.

France AIP AD 1.3 (Index of aerodromes) indicates which are international aerodromes.

Correct. I got to AIP GEN 1.2 but not 1.3 on the SIA website (why? dunno.. perhaps as I used a mobile version) and I read the info in 1.2 in conjunction with the AD entry which lists customs. Only then I found a NOTAM specifying it's only for intra-Schengen flights. Of course before the actual flight I would both go through a complete AIP and the relevant NOTAMs, I just thought it might be good to ask a question out here in the meantime.
