Full vaccination for France in Canada

Upvote:2

The rules for being recognized as fully vaccinated in France from a domestic standpoint are as follow :

Si j’ai reçu deux doses de vaccin, je dois faire mon rappel au plus tard quatre mois après ma deuxième injection. [...]

If I have received two doses of vaccine, I need to do my booster at most 4 month after 2nd injection

(translations and emphasis mine, source)


Entry

From Orange countries (Australia taken here), the rules are TIMATIC says (documentation database) :

  • a COVID-19 vaccination certificate showing that:

[...]

  • they were fully vaccinated with AstraZeneca (SK Bioscience), AstraZeneca (Vaxzevria), Covishield, Fiocruz, Moderna (Spikevax), Nuvaxovid (Novavax), Pfizer-BioNTech (Comirnaty) or R-Covi at least 7 days and at most 270 days before arrival; or
  • they were fully vaccinated with AstraZeneca (SK Bioscience), AstraZeneca (Vaxzevria), Covishield, Fiocruz, Moderna (Spikevax), Nuvaxovid (Novavax), Pfizer-BioNTech (Comirnaty) or R-Covi and received a booster dose of Moderna (Spikevax) or Pfizer-BioNTech (Comirnaty) at most 4 months after the last mandatory dose or at least 7 days before arrival; or
  • they were fully vaccinated with Covaxin, Sinopharm or Sinovac and received a dose of Moderna (Spikevax) or Pfizer-BioNTech (Comirnaty) at least 7 days before arrival; or

And the French foreign ministry says

proof of vaccination status; Since February 1, 2022, in order for their vaccination schedule to remain recognized as complete, persons aged eighteen or over wishing to enter the national territory must have received a dose of complementary messenger RNA vaccine no later than 9 months following the injection of the last required dose.

Because your last dose hasn't been injected more than 270 days ago, will not be in 1 month since your last shot.

You are counted as fully vaccinated and can enter France, even in the case Canada switches classification. The 4 month time is for domestic use inside the country (in case the passe vaccinal is reinstated)
