Proof of vaccination is first valid two weeks after the second shot — for the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines — or four weeks for the one-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine. People who have had COVID-19 and have received a one-shot vaccine, need to show they got their jab at least two weeks before traveling.
Under the new regulations, all travelers from green list countries —which include all European Union nations, as well as Australia, New Zealand, South Korea, Israel, Japan, Lebanon and Singapore—can enter France, though non-vaccinated travelers need to show a negative PCR test taken 72 hours before travel.
