Paris: France updated its travel list, move U.S., Brazil, Egypt and many others to the green list “Nations with the negligible or moderate circulation of the virus” But keep the UK on the orange list.
Fully vaccinated people arriving in France only need to show their vaccination records.
Unvaccinated travellers over 12 who come from countries on the “green” list must present a PCR test result from the 72 hours before or an antigen test result from the 48 hours before, or a certificate of recovery from Covid from the last six months.
Unvaccinated travellers come from a country on the “orange” list, they must continue to present compelling reasoning justifying the need for them to come to mainland France and must present a PCR test result from the 72 hours before or an antigen test result from the 48 hours before. Certificates of recovery are not listed as valid proof in this case.
Travellers who test positive will have to isolate themselves.
