On June 9th, France opened its borders to all vaccinated foreign visitors from America, Britain, and elsewhere. France is only accepting those who have been vaccinated by Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca, and Johnson & Johnson vaccines. This could be a hurdle for countries like China that use vaccines not approved by the European Medicines Agency.

With France only accepting vaccines from those four providers, non-EU visitors who haven’t been vaccinated by the approved list will still need to prove they have a reason to visit France and have to quarantine on arrival. Still, this news is great for the tourism industry in France. With the opening of France comes Spain which has opened on the same day. Spain has its own set of unique requirements. You have to present a QR code from the Spain Travel Health Portal and a vaccination certificate proving you were vaccinated at least 14 days before arrival.

Travel is definitely changing! What do you think about these requirements?
