A French national will face a Perth court today after being charged with importing 10kg of meth into the country.

The 18-year-old woman flew into Perth airport from Paris, France on April 25.

She was chosen by Australian Border Force officers for a bag inspection, during which they discovered a white crystalline material inside five sealed plastic bags.
