Hi there. My family of four is traveling to Paris In March. I’m a bit confused by some of the websites. Aside from vaccination documentation and passports, are there other documents needed - most specifically related to Covid? For example, passenger locator form or sworn testaments or whatever?

There is additional documentation, but your airline will give you the forms that you need to fill out. All you need to prepare are your passport and shot record.

Each airline usually has an app that will gather and preload all your requirements. For example, British Airways and American Airlines use Verifly. The airlines are responsible for checking everything before you are allowed to board a plane to France. They don’t really check anything after you land. However, in France, there is the additional requirement to visit a pharmacy to get the French Vaccine Pass to enter public establishments such as restaurants and museums
The French government website has two forms (available in English) listed. Passenger Locator form required for all visitors and an EOS sworn statement for vaccine status and Covid symptoms
However, just today I received an email from American Airlines one week prior to departure. It took me to their ‘travel requirements’ which showed me three forms required. An extra form required for Orange Countries pretty much asking same thing as the EOS. So just to be careful I now have three forms filled out to be shown to airlines for departure
Last November the Verifly app linked to every document required for travel and you printed, scanned and loaded them back up to Verifly for the airlines. Now, for France next week, it appears they have given up trying to keep track of it all. You cannot load the documents, you merely tell it ‘you have documents ready’. The only thing you load for verification are the vaccination cards

This is helpful, as I also am traveling to France within the week, on British Air with London connection (booked through American).
I also got a notice from AA about what I need to do beforehand (I figure instructions to get Covid test for UK entry don’t apply) and using Verifly, but the Sherpa links led me to the euplf.eu site for entering passenger locator info. And I can’t submit it until after check/in (so not til 24 hours before flight). Has anyone used this for Passenger Locator Form rather than hard copies? And does this site coordinate with Verifly? Should I bring completed hard copies of passenger locator form, sworn statement and health screening, in addition to digital?
Sorry if these questions seem redundant, but I’m seeing different things on different sources. Thanks for any help.
