France Lifted All Covid Entrance Restrictions for Travellers

All Covid entrance restrictions for travelers have been lifted in France, regardless of vaccination status.

All new entrants to France are no longer required to present proof of immunization, have a negative Covid test, or complete any Covid-related paperwork as of today (1st August).

Fully jabbed newcomers had to provide confirmation of vaccination before the rule change, including proof of having gotten a booster shot if more than nine months had gone since their second dosage.

All entrants were required to produce a sworn declaration attesting to their immunity, and travelers who had not had vaccinations had to provide evidence of a negative PCR or antigen test.

All of those restrictions, however, have since been lifted, making it simpler for tourists to visit France.

Furthermore, although it is still advised, wearing face masks in healthcare facilities is no longer required in France.

To reflect the changes, the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office has been modified.

It reads: “From August 1, 2022, all Covid travel restrictions for travellers to France have been lifted. This also applies to travel between metropolitan France and each of the French overseas territories.

“Face masks are no longer mandatory in health establishments, but remain strongly recommended.”
