Travelling to France
Passengers should familiarise themselves with France’s health pass or "Pass Sanitaire". This establishes fully-vaccinated status, or a negative result from an RT-PCR or antigen test, or recovery from COVID. To apply for this health pass please download the Tous Anti Covid Verif application. For further information, click here.
The QR code associated with your vaccination status in Ireland can be directly uploaded to TousAntiCOVID to generate a French health pass. It is a requirement to access a wide variety of services and amenities in France, including bars, restaurants, leisure and culture venues, ski lifts and public transport. The health pass is not required for children under 12.
You must also complete a short Sworn Document to confirm that are not displaying any COVID-19 symptoms. See more details here.

If you are travelling with teenagers, they will need to apply for a ‘Holiday Ninja Pass’, which requires two negative PCR tests and one negative antigen over a one-week period. See more details here.

Travelling to Italy
Unvaccinated visitors will not be permitted to use ski lifts or to take part in a range of leisure activities. A negative test will not be enough for entry to restaurants and hotels. The new rules came into force on December 6th and are in place until end of March 2022. These rules do not apply to under-12s.
All those arriving in Italy will need to show a negative antigen or PCR test result, regardless of vaccination status or recovery status.
In Resort
All visitors will need a green pass, which will be granted if you are fully vaccinated or have proof of recovery.
Your ski pass must be validated daily using your green pass. This simple process can be done online and your resort manager will supply you with the link.
For those under 12 years of age, lift passes can be activated for the week at the ski pass office.
Mask wearing both indoors and outdoors is mandatory and many places require a medical grade FFP2 mask.
The Italian government have made helmet wearing while skiing, mandatory for all those under 18 years of age. However, we would recommend the wearing of helmets for everyone.
Anyone who plans to ski in Italy must have Third Party Liability Insurance Cover.
