Before, to access the vaccination cardBritons need to be fully vaccinated, show proof of Covid recovery within the last six months or medical proof of an exemption from vaccination.

Any visitors who do not fall into these categories are prohibited from entering the locations that require the pass.

However, as of today, the pass has been removed, so people can enter bars, restaurants and gyms regardless of vaccination status.

At the beginning of the month, Prime Minister Jean Castex told broadcaster TF1 that the regulation would be lifted because the ‘health situation is improving’.

I said local media: “Indeed, we are seeing a recurrence of cases, like everywhere in Europe.

For now, unvaccinated Britons can still only enter France for a necessary reason.
