I will leave this reminder as a sticky because tthis is often a thread that new members (or new Hermès lovers) post on - hopefully temporarily.
 
We head to Paris tomorrow and both applied for our health pass code a week ago and have heard nothing. I have no issue with getting tested upon arrival for a 72 hour QR code but we will be there for a month...definitely don't want to spend hundreds of dollars on tests every three days...I have better plans for my dollars ;)
You dont need a health pass if you have a virtual vaccination card, i come from the middle east and in my country we have an app that shows the vaccination and that I'm clear of covid. They accepted it everywhere in paris.
 
Agree - there are some 5* hotels in Paris where the base room rate easily exceeds $1500/night with suites over $4000/night so the concierge services are on par (restaurant reservations, personal shopping appointments etc).
I was actually given 4 hotels name by a SA and she told me that a phone call from these will definitely score me an appointment. She was so sure that she give them by order of the importance .
 
so helpful! I know the Pass is required for restaurants and museums but does Hermes also require it to enter or would vaccine certificate suffice ?
We just left Paris. No retailer, including department stores, asked to see any proof of vaccination, health pass, etc. We were only asked to show at museums and a couple of restaurants. Honestly I was a bit disappointed as I think it is an excellent idea and an incentive to get vaccinated. But if they aren’t really going to check and enforce it it’s kind of worthless.
 
Here is the best way to get your pass sanitaire

If you want to avoid the wait or avoid seeking out a location in Paris that will convert your US CDC card, email mailto:[email protected]

Include your passport image, CDC image and travel proof to France.

We emailed Friday evening, so after business hours in France and we both received ours on Monday. Had we emailed during normal French business hours, it would have been 2 hours.

I did this i received an email 2 days after i left paris saying that they are too busy. And that i can do the pcr test in paris. But as i mentioned we have an app on our phones with all the vaccination and pcr test details so we were fine. Its so funny that at a restaurant they asked me where im from and then asked me to open the app, so they are aware of it.

We resubmitted our applications via the Online app on Wednesday evening and received our QR code Thursday morning, hours before departing for Paris!
 
Hahah yes they are but im shocked that the four seasons is not one of them, she said its not that important.
I can actually believe it isn't to be honest.
Its more 'cookie cutter' than the others.
I'm surprised that Hotel Costes isn't on the list -I've stayed there a number of times on business and there have been quite a few A list staying there at the same time. (rock stars/actors/supermodels)

this is out of subject. Suggest it in your country but leave France alone.
This isn’t a health reason but a political one.
You must know it already but 99% of the population did survived.
