How Was the French Inspection of Your CDC Card?

What do the French authorities/airlines look for when inspecting your CDC card? I am fully vaxxed with booster but I see some dates are also mentioned by French authorities. Do they inspect he dates when you took shots and booster?

No one in France looked at our card this spring; we had to show it at the airport on arrival last fall. Now only the airline approves. it -- If you have two shots and then an MNRA booster you are good. The dates don't matter.

I agree with Janet and Jane. Only the person at the Delta check in desk looked at the card when I traveled in April. I did not have to show it on boarding the Paris bound flight in Seattle. Even at Immigration in Paris the guy didn't ask for it although I had it handy and ready to show.

Last October was a different story but France has moved way beyond inspecting the CDC card or having a French Sanitaire/Vaccine Pass.

Airlines assume the primary responsibility of verifying the entry qualifications of their passengers. You may not be asked for proof of vaccination upon arrival at immigration, but the possibility exists.

We arrived last Thursday by United Airlines. No one ever looked at our vaccine cards.

I flew on Sunday from Newark to Paris and the only person that looked at my vaccine card was the person checking me in for the airline.

We uploaded a copy of our vaccine cards to the Delta FlyReady app. Nobody ever asked to see the actual card.
