Health Requirements

A number of countries have introduced health-related entry restrictions. Details of each country’s regulations can be found in the “conseils aux voyageurs” section of the diplomatie.gouv.fr. website.

Depending on the country you are travelling to, you may be required or recommended to have certain vaccinations or treatments.

For further guidance, consult:

• Your doctor
• Your travel agency
• Your airline
• https://www.diplomatie.gouv.fr/fr/conseils-aux-voyageurs/conseils-par-pays/

Please note: Animals are also subject to certain health requirements. Remember to have your dog or cat vaccinated against rabies. See our page about travelling with pets.  

If needed, it is possible to get your PLF travel documents at the airport.

If you’re going on holiday to a country in Europe, remember to pack your European Health Insurance Card. This card will cover all local medical costs, in accordance with the legislation in the country you are staying in.

Apply for your card at least 3 weeks before your departure by logging into your ameli account https://www.ameli.fr/assure/adresses-et-contacts/lobtention-dun-document/commander-une-carte-europeenne-dassurance-maladie-ceam
