HOLIDAY - Portugal and Spain "under surveillance", PCR tests of less than 24 hours for non -vaccinated at the entrance to France

For several days, Portugal and Spain, where the variant Delta has been growing in a dazzling way, no longer seemed to respond to the definition of the countries without risk of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

However, this Monday, after an extraordinary defense council which was held around Emmanuel Macron and Jean Castex, France did not modify the list of countries classified "green".Thus, Spain and Portugal are not among the risk destinations.

And that changes a lot since this Monday, in his television speech, Emmanuel Macron announced "that nationals from risk -at -risk" will have to observe a period of "constrained isolation if they are not vaccinated".

Test of less than 24 hours for non -vacinated

A particularly strong measure but which will therefore not concern Spain or Portugal even if these two countries "will be the subject of reinforced surveillance" according to the announcement, at the very end of the evening this Monday, of Clément Beaune, secretaryof State for European Affairs.The latter also indicated that the test required at the entrance to France from Portugal or Spain "will have to date from less than 24 hours for non -vaccinated".

"Protect yourself wherever you go"

A little earlier, government spokesperson Gabriel Attal had confirmed, on BFM TV, that Portugal and Spain were not placed on the list of countries at risk but he called his fellow citizens "to prudenceWherever they are this summer "."The virus circulates strongly everywhere, you have to protect yourself wherever you go".

As a reminder, any passenger to go to Spain by plane or by boat, including in transit, must complete a personal and non -transferable form.Once this form is completed and signed, the traveler receives a QR code associated with his trip which he must keep on his mobile phone or print in order to be able to pass the airport health check.For the passage of the land border, no document is requested.On the return therefore, non-hobs will have to produce a PCR test of less than 24 hours.
