Would you please post the link for the Spanish health pass? CheersI did my Spanish health pass about 2 weeks ago for our Barcelona trip (which we just came back from)
It was quite easy to do and no issues
Got the QR and when we landed at BCN and deplaned they scanned it even before we got to the passport control
That was that
Not sure . Believe me I was really surprised it happen so fast.I sent my papers the first day via the email instructions. I rec'd a reply that the email was rec'd. To date there is no QR code. How did you get your so quickly? Thank you for your time.

What is your arrival (in France) date? The link has been indicating that the priorities for those who are already in France or arriving before Aug 15.

Hi Kay Lee, can you let us know when you receive yours please?We'll arrive on Aug 19, submitted the request, got the acknowledgment but no QR code yet.
Sure. Just in case we don't receive one before our arrival, we have booked an Antigen test at a pharmacy near the train station (staying overnight at a hotel in the area).Hi Kay Lee, can you let us know when you receive yours please?
I printed it, filled the blanks and signed, and scanned it.How are you filling out the digital pdf?
Rockettester, I am in France and applied on Tuesday but have received nothing. Please tell me exactly how you filled the form. Did you put your United States address where they ask for “address of residence abroad “ or a French address? In the subject line of the email, did you put your name as it appears on your passport and did you send the email using the same email address that you put on the application. I think they must have rejected my application but did not tell me why. I want to resubmit and need to know exactly how you answered because I am being asked everywhere for the QR code and some do not accept my CDC vaccination card.

Other than printing the pdf application form, filling the blanks, signing it and scanning it, you can do it all digitally. You click in the fields (dotted lines) and type in your information. You can do this in your browser. You also need to sign the pdf application form and for me, this doesn't work in my browser. So I opened the pdf application form in Acrobat Reader where I can not only fill in all the dotted lines but also sign the form digitally.How are you filling out the digital pdf?
The QR code required by the Spanish government for flights to Spain is different from the QR code that you get when you have successfully applied for a conversion of your American, Canadian or other non-EU vaccination data to the French health pass system. The QR codes are not only technically very different but have also different purposes.Spanish health pass [...] It was quite easy to do and no issues.
Portugal doesn't use the Spanish procedure for obtaining a QR code for flights nor the French procedure for converting non-EU vaccination cards into French digital vaccination certificates.Does anyone know the procedure for Portugal? Is it the same?
This is not an answer to your QR Code questions, as I also have the same questions. In the meantime, you may go to a pharmacy and get an Antigen test (inexpensive -- about 20 - 30 Euros?) for a temporary 72-hour code. This will give you some more time to wait for the QR code. While you're getting this done at the pharmacy, you might take a chance with the pharmacist for a "Pass Sanitaire" if you have a CDC-issued full vaccination card. That's what we're planning on doing. The French pharmacists are apparently authorized to issue the card, they used to do so, but stopped.Rockettester, I am in France and applied on Tuesday but have received nothing.

Thanks for this. I was just setting down to fill out mine this afternoon. I am flying into Spain and starting my Camino in Pamplona, but... I do plan on flying to Nice after to see some Camino amigos who live there, so this QR code is
Thank you so much, Rockettester. We thought we would have to apply for this in person in France. This will be a great help to get this done before departure. We just submitted our applications.

It would be your address in the US, name as it appears on your passport and using the same email to send as on your application is probably wise. I know this shouldn't be encouraged but because you are already in France I would resend it. You should be a priority and it appears maybe yours was missed.

Do you also have the Spanish QR? SpTH app. It is my understanding you also must register with Spain.

I have the same question. The app does not allow you to continue unless arriving by air or sea so I am assuming it does not pertain.So flying US to CDG/BIQ on 8/29, walking into Spain via SJPP.

FollowingDoes anyone know the procedure for Portugal? Is it the same?
I got a reply back a few hours after I submitted it - acknowledging receipt. I had put the passport, vaccine certificate and return flight info in one pdf, and the French Health Pass application in another pdf, filled out digitally, and digitially signed. Attached these two to a brief email with the specified subject line.I had a reply later that day. No QR code though. Did the email bounce back? I tried for two days previously not realizing that the files were too large. My hubby (techy- me not so much) converted?? Compressed them and it finally went. Good luck keep us posted.
Thanks, I resubmitted this morning and still no reply. I did 4 pdf files. I was unable to fill out digitally because the email line was not fillable so I printed it filled it out then scanned the signed application.

Our date is 9 Sept. I use gmail, and it usually doesn't like more than 3 attachments, so used 2 and checked the size of every image. I have Adobe Acrobat Pro and was able to edit the email field to make it bigger, but wouldn't think the initial acceptance would even look at that level of detail. More like a total size issue.

Rockettester, I received my health pass on August 20 - 10 days after filing, and my husband, who filed the same time, has never received his. He fell and tore his quadraceps, so we stopped our chemin and returned home on Sunday. I am holding on to my pass because I think it is valid for the entire EU and there is no expiration date. Thanks.Let me know
How long did it take? I sent off for mine the 22nd of August and got a reply back saying they’re overwhelmed with requests and I might need to go to a French pharmacy at the airport (CDG) and get a negative Covid test and temporary QR pass for three days there.
