Hello,
Has anyone travelled to the UK from France since the British reintroduced the need for pre-departure tests earlier this month?
My understanding is that a lateral flow test will be accepted. Is this what the French call a ‘test antigenique’? Do you have to go to a special centre to get an ‘official’ one done for travel or can you get it from any pharmacy?
I have to do mine next Saturday and the test centre near me which I found via the Air France website “doesn’t do tests at weekends” (!!!) so I was told to go to a pharmacy. I’ve never had a test since the beginning of the pandemic so I’m not sure how it all works. Will the pharmacy be able to give me a document (with a QR code?) which the British will accept?
Also - has anyone recently driven from France up to the Netherlands? Are there delays due to Covid checks on the France / Belgium, Belgiulm / Netherlands borders? I’m actually taking the ferry from Amsterdam in order to get to the UK…
Thanks!
