Evening all,
Got a trip booked for 10th September for 4 of us , which has been cancelled 3 times already, is the below correct as I know there has been so many changes
You can travel to france as long as double jabbed and can show proof
Before returning to England you need a pcr test 72 hours before travel
Once back in England you need do a test on day 2 and day 8 and both need to be pre booked before initial travel and show proof
Is the above correct as its doing my nut in lol

Have a look at the Eurotunnel website. They have been very good at setting out the requirements in place and always bang up to date.
You don't need to be travelling with them to read their guidance.

Anyone got experience of the 2 & 8 days tests. Are they mandated - how? Cost? What you have to do with any of the results, etc?

Correct...... can also have an antigenic test in France for coming home
Titty have a look in the other thread, loads of links in there
In short, you need day 2 and 8 booked before you fill in your passenger locator form for return to England. Yes mandated, has to be from a government approved provider of which there is a list on gov.uk and they provide a reference for you to put on the locator form. Price varies on location and home or walk in etc. No need to do anything with the results, 10 day isolation can only finish after you have a negative result from the day 8 test (but must still be the full 10 days)

Thanks mate. I guess the situation remains very tentative. I'm due to travel 1st week of Sept - had both jabs & self isolation is not a problem as I can work from home. Appreciate not everyone is like this.
The once returned ‘2 & 8 day testing' seems to be for France only (Amber Plus) whereas Amber countries is just a 2 day test. All could change come this Thursday?

Correct..... Was a last minute creation of the plus group just for france. I went fully expecting the quarantine and day 8 test to be scrapped and then it never changed..... Oh well, so it is, my last day of isolation today as long as the result comes back negative tomorrow
Yes could change indeed, fingers crossed as I fancy popping back

Just done both and you do nothing with the results. I was phoned at 3 every day by the NHS police but other than that no problems. Cost was around £80 for the pair. You can pay around the same for a day 5 early release if you get a negative day 2 test.
The_Andyman pretty much covers it in his reply. I had a test at the local pharmacy for 25 euros to get home which you upload to your eurotunnel booking.

Came across this as a price comparison of the 2 / 8 day tests (plus 2 day only if things change).

Have there been any issues with the early Indian manufactured vaccinations, this was all mentioned a month or so ago, nothing really mentioned since? Has anyone encountered any issues that has had one of the batches referenced?

I had one of these batches, no problem getting into France almost 4 weeks ago, but since then I believe the government announced that it was an admin mistake or something. Shouldn't be any issues at all
