ah good, this is the same as the paddock rule.

for british people with a british vaccination qr code in tousanticovid, bring your printout from the app. the verif app currently rejects the uk codes, and if gate staff are correctly trained they will ask for the paper copy to do a proper check. they should not straight up reject your TAC qr code and send you packing.

And that means I need to take the test though I am vaxed.

Sigh.

Never simple is it. To be clear, do you mean printout from the UK app or can you print something out from the tousanticovid app?

**bella** · 4 Aug 2021, 08:38 (Ref:4065235)

the pdf you can request and print out from the nhs app. the non-acceptance of nhs codes in the verif app is mentioned in several places on the internet including on official french govt channels, so if you needed to dig deeper and sanity check for your own purposes a google for tousanticovid verif nhs app code or something similar would show the right info.

seperately, i found at border control it’s much easier for everyone to wave the printed vaccine pdf at the people checking. likewise, paper copies of documents (including the sworn declaration for france) are just easier to find the required info on.

Thanks Bella, was going to take several copies of printed proof + NHS letter anyway...Mr Super Cautious here!

But, that's a nuisance, although I guess there's a chance it'll be sorted by the 18th of this month.

Covid self test kits for the return trip are apparently out for delivery and will be delivered to me in the next hour or so. Little by little I'm feeling more and more prepared (and relaxed) regarding all the hoops we'll need to jump through in a week or so's time.

**bella** · 4 Aug 2021, 10:50 (Ref:4065267)

good. that’s the aim of all of this after all - that you and others can jump through the hoops without it intruding too much on your enjoyment of the event. planning and covering your arse really does pay dividends in the current times we’re travelling in!

the source for the TAC verif advice is the french embassy in the uk’s twitter feed from about a week ago - i had another rummage around to see if it had been fixed or clarified (course not

).

I can already see those blank expressions on their faces at the circuit entrance.

**Aysedasi** · 4 Aug 2021, 15:09 (Ref:4065315)

France officially coming off Amber Plus for the UK. Good news undoubtedly but still feels like lose a problem, gain a problem for us Brits at the moment when it comes to LM.

GT6 · 4 Aug 2021, 21:36 (Ref:4065386)

Well that is good news, looks like i will be there

only if you see it that way. this is a big issue gone, and all the other issues have very simple, well tested solutions.

For me, the self isolation on return was an inconvenience, nothing more, but the non recognition of UK vaccine proof QR codes is certainly another psychological hurdle we need reassurance about before joining the queue at the gate on the Wednesday morning. I shall call the ticket office before travelling and seek further reassurances if necessary once in France, but I really don't anticipate an issue by the time we arrive at the circuit.

EDIT: Just seen on PH this Tweet - implying the TousAntiCovidVerif issue is fixed.

Amazing how quickly that got fixed once France was taken off the UK's amber plus list!

Yup, TAC app on my phone now states my NHS certs are acceptable.

So, I presume this makes entry to the circuit much easier.

**bella** · 5 Aug 2021, 12:14 (Ref:4065459)

it makes it as easy as it is for the locals

just don’t forget your passport and your tickets!

The power of this part of the forum is amazing!

Truckosaurus · 6 Aug 2021, 06:11 (Ref:4065561)

Which lucky Tenther is going to be first across the channel (or other international border) next week?

Normally folk travel for the practice and scrutineering, but that's off the cards this year.

Is it last minute trips all round?
