We are fully vaccinated in the US and will be travelling to multiple EU countries. We will be flying Easyjet from Portugal to France which does not require a covid test for fully vaccinated (this is not an in-transit flight originating in the US) The US embassy site says that the CDC card is accepted by France. However, Easyjet website says, to be considered fully vaccinated in France, the vaccination certificate "is accepted in both, digital and paper format, it must contain a QR code that can be successfully scanned at the airport" The CDC card does not have a QR code. Do we show proof of vaccination at the departure airport (Porto) or at the arrival airport (Bordeaux)? Will they accept our CDC card or do we need a covid test?

Neither. Travel within the Schengen zone does not require proof of vaccination. To enter the Schengen zone, you must be fully vaccinated, defined as having completed the initial 2 shot series and a mRNA booster.
