Hi, we are a family of 4 wanting to visit france in may. We have completed are 2 dose vaccine schedule, the 270 days are expiring in last week of april.
We have not taken a booster as had got covid last month. Also is covisheild as a booster allowed? Or is mRNA booster compulsory?
We will be visiting France from a green country, is entry allowed with negative RTPCR , and is there any qurantine?
If we take a booster in last week of april, how many days after the booster is it considered valid?

Booster has to be an mRNA vaccine
Booster is valid 7 days after you get it
If not, you are considered unvaxxed and have to have a negative test to enter.
There isn't any quarantine period.

Once caveat, as long as you have received your second dose no longer than 9 months ago you are considered vaccinated for entry and do not require a test. Here is the exact wording;
For their vaccination status to remain considered as complete, travelers aged 18 or more wishing to enter the French territory must have received a complementary dose of Messenger RNA vaccine (Pfizer or Moderna) no later than 9 months following the injection of the last required dose
