A policeman at the site confirmed that the evacuation was over as they found nothing at the tower of what described by an anonymous telephone call.
Paris police force received a call around 6:40 p.m. reporting a package bomb on the first floor of the Eiffel Tower, upon which they took the operation immediately.
There was not yet specific number of people affected by the urgent evacuation.
This is the second fake bomb alert that evacuated the Eiffel Tower within two weeks. On the night of Sept. 14 over 2,000 people, mostly tourists, were forced away from the tower following a bomb alarm originated from an anonymous phone call.
On that same night, other bomb alerts triggered chaos and evacuation at the Champs-Elysees Avenue and a central railway station of the Saint-Michel.
After those hoax bombs, Paris was harassed by a series of emergent operation due to bomb alerts in the following days.
On Sept. 21, a bomb alert at a railway station in southern suburbs of Paris halted train traffic; on Monday, another bomb alert had Paris traffic via the Saint-Lazare station suspended for around 30 minutes. All of the above-mentioned warnings have turned out to be fake.
Though the evacuation and suspension of traffic didn't last long, it's true that this kind of hoax fueled citizens' panic and fear as several French residents have expressed concerns on the safety of public traffic.
Figures from French media showed that the police have registered some 200 hoax alarms, which include suspicious envelopes and packages, and warnings targeting planes.
France's Internal Anti-espionage Chief Bernard Squarcini warned earlier this month that the risk of a terrorist strike on French soil is real.
The country, whose expatriates in Africa were kidnapped also this month, has raised the national alert level to red, the last following the highest degree of scarlet.
