French PM announces end of vaccine passport

On Wednesday, 2 March, the French Prime Minister Jean Castex announced that the current pass vaccinal (Covid-19 passport regime) will end on 14 March 2021. A pass vaccinal demonstrating that an individual is fully vaccinated against Covid-19 is currently required to enter bars, restaurants, galleries, and cinemas.

In addition, the French government briefed that mask wearing will no longer be required in the vast majority of venues, with the notable exception of public transport, where individuals will still be required to wear face coverings.

The University of Kent Paris School will continue to keep staff and students updated on national requirements as they become available.
