    COVID Masking on the Camino

    I took a holiday in a small Greek island this spring. The owner of our accommodation came to pick us up from the port. He wore a mask in the car but we didn't have to. It's really personal choice.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Spain health website

    The form is for people arriving in Spain.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Portuguese PLF if not staying in Portugal

    I don't know what the form is like. If it doesn't actually require a Portuguese address (ie it's just an open text box) I would write your Spanish address. Sometimes there is also an option to write TRANSIT. When I went to the UK in August, I picked up my car and drove straight to the ferry...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Walking into Spain from Portugal

    Most borders within the Schengen zone are like that. We have free movement of people and goods within the zone. There can sometimes be random checks, though.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Vaccine Passport Requirements in Spain traveling from the US

    OK, I don't know if they will accept your documents. The valid certificate mostly relates to time. If you were an EU resident you would be issued with a certificate of recovery valid for 6 months.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Vaccine Passport Requirements in Spain traveling from the US

    Usually you need a positive PCR test result showing that you have had Covid. In the EU this is used to produce another EU digital certificate, I don't know what other proof is required by Spain, though. At the very least I think you would need evidence of the test with the date you tested...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Confusing Vaccine Pass Requirements in France as of 02/27/22

    You shouldn't have any trouble as long as you've had the booster. I believe the NHS certificate is accepted in France.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Confusing Vaccine Pass Requirements in France as of 02/27/22

    It depends on the sort of train you take. If you take the slower regional train, you can travel without a pass vaccinal. You also don't have to have had the booster within 4 months. If you have had a booster (at any time) you should be able to get the pass. It also seems that not all the lists...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD France and the COVID pass.

    Most European countries are reducing all restrictions. Some have already said they won't be offering a 4th vaccine dose to the general population. There simply isn't enough support for more boosters.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD France and the COVID pass.

    No. There is no expiry for the booster.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD France and the COVID pass.

    If it is less than 5 months since you received the second jab, you will be able to get the pass. But it will expire when you reach the 5-month limit - by which I mean it will not be accepted in France under current rules. However, it may still be accepted in other countries according to whatever...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Travelling to France - Can I get Vaccine (Health) Pass at the airport pharmacy?

    Yes, you only need to do it once. It's valid all over Europe.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Types of Masks to Wear on the Camino

    Yes, I can read it now.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Vaccine Passport Requirements in Spain traveling from the US

    Yes.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Portugal drops Covid test requirement

    To be honest, I think it's the only option really. The worst thing is to turn up without a test when you need one.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Portugal drops Covid test requirement

    At the moment the Canadian vaccination certificate isn't on the list of accepted foreign certificates, so I expect you'll need a test.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Portugal drops Covid test requirement

    You can enter the country with a negative test, without vaccination. But if you're not vaccinated, in order to enter cafes, bars, restaurants and accommodation, you will need to keep taking tests every couple of days. So, it would be very inconvenient to be in Portugal as a visitor if you're...

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Camino Frances - via London and Paris

    It can be either PCR or antigen test (lateral flow) but must be certified by a recognised laboratory. So, you can't use a self-test. You need to book and pay for a private lab test.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Travel UK to France (Biarritz) - February 2022

    Yes, definitely watch out for the different time limits on 2 shot vaccination. In some countries the rules for entry (into the country) have one time limit and the rules for accessing services (bars/restaurants etc.) have a different time limit.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Camino Frances - via London and Paris

    There was a point where travel from the UK was only permitted for essential reasons. But hopefully that won't happen again.
