    We have booked to go to France this September.

    At first the message from the French Gov issued on the 1st Feb states that your booster cannot be more than 270days from the date of your second jab. 

    There new message today as I understand it requires that you must have your booster shot within the 9 month period from the date of your second dose. So I had my booster shot on the Nov 22 2021 It was 2months 21 days from my second shot. So its within the 9 month window.  

    Its the time between the 2nd shot and the booster than needs to be inside the 9 month window. 

    Have I got this right??

    Confused!!

    Cheers

    CRF - yes, I think you are correct as things stand at the moment. I believe also that the period for the pre-entry LFT has been extended from 24 to 48 hours before departure. But I'm sure things will change again before we go in May!

    CRF I too agree with your reading of the entry requirements.  It could all change by the time we go in May!!

    I went to France 2 weeks ago to attend a funeral. The rules surrounding vaccine passports highlighted boosters as the main priority so providing your booster was carried out within 270 days of having your second one you'll be fine but it's a long year ahead and one can only assume that matters won't get worse. Just keep checking. 

    We found confirmation of having the booster was all anyone wanted proof of.

     The original post still says "unless you have had a booster jab less than 14 days before you travel."

    This should be more than - perhaps the original poster would like to correct this as it's at the top of this thread and is misleading.
