We’re soon travelling from Hook of Holland to Les Deux Alpes. The quickest route is via Belgium & Luxembourg into France. Has anyone here done this route recently, who could give me some advice what I need to do regarding Covid, Vaccine passports etc.

I’ve been bouncing between websites and found some of the advice to travellers to be, at best confusing & at worst contradictory.

I'd look on the website of the ferry company you're travelling with tbh. But I thought i read that France were dropping pre-departure testing requirements

Stena line just send you to the Netherlands “home office” website, which isn’t very clear. It seems like it is until you see that you fall under other categories too…

Unless it’s changed in the last 10 days we needed a negative LFT to get in to Holland. We used Chronomics and did it as we left home. Showed at check in, not looked at again anywhere.

For France make sure you have your NHS Covid app with all 3 jabs showing and QR code. We also filled in “SWORN UNDERTAKING TO COMPLY WITH RULES FOR ENTRY
INTO METROPOLITAN FRENCH TERRITORY
(FROM ORANGE LIST COUNTRIES)”

(Although this might have changed since we got here).

We just drive straight through Belgium & Luxembourg with no border checks, (and also straight through the border in to Switzerland with no check).

We’ve been to Verbier, Les Deux Alpes, Risoul and now at Serre Che, at no point has anyone checked us for anything. From being here Covid is as good as over & after the first day it all just feels like life is back to normal.

We're travelling to Denmark via Germany and the Netherlands next month. I'm expecting to require proof of vaccination and a negative lft to get into the Netherlands unless current guidance changes.

Although I've just seen this on DFDS site which suggests no test required from 23rd March?
