Covid 19 recovery letter

Has anyone travelled to Spain recently under the use of a covid recovery letter rather than vaccination? It seems based on their website this is an acceptable document to enter. But I would like to confirm from others that have traveled their recently and used this form of documentation.

My partner and I going to Spain End of February. He had the original Pfizer vaccine x2. However 270 days have passed and he had Covid this month. We prefer for him to have the booster later since this recent infection will offer immunity. Under the new rule on feb 1 his vaccine would be invalid without the booster.

Also for getting into places will this be a problem with 2 Pfizer shots and the recovery letter.

Thanks in advance for any insight.

Not sure this helps, but I have had all 3 Pfizer shots which include the booster. Finished with the booster on Oct. 4th. I came down with mild cold type symptoms & tested positive on Jan. 4th for Covid. It’s been over 25 + days since I showed no symptoms. My Dr. wrote a certificate of recovery for me & I’m taking it with me to Spain next week.

I believe my fully vaccinated status is good in Spain. If asked I’ll certainly share my official Certificate of Recovery with Spanish & French officials. We fly into Paris after 7 days in Barcelona. I will have the French form filled out & promise to take an antigen test within 24 hours around the corner from our bnb. That’s my plan.
