Tests

[VivienCampbell]

Hi All,

We are thinking about heading to DLP at the end of this month but when it comes to getting tests etc we are completely confused 🤯

Can anyone confirm the below?

1. Do we get a PCR test before we travel? If so, how long before we travel?

2. When leaving DLP do we have to take a test? If so, how many days before? And where do we get the test and do we need to record it somewhere?

3. When home, do we have to take a further PCR test? If so how many days after we arrive home? Does it need to be a paid test?

Sorry for all the questions 🤍☺️

My understanding to travel to France (from UK) you need to be double vaccinated to avoid quarantine there if not for an essential reason. Children over 12 need a PCR 72 hours before travel. You have to do sworn declarations.
There's more info here.
gov.uk/foreign-travel-ad...y-requirements

You can normally buy a package of tests that cover travel to your destination and coming home. If you are Wales or Scotland your governments specify which companies. England just have an approved list.

I've found this link but bat to do your own research just in case it's out of date.

Lots of advice in Disneyland paris trip planning part in forum.

Antigen test 24 hours before arriving in France. No need for PCR. If not fully vaccinated and over 12.

Not sure who is travelling? If you have over 12s ( looks like that’s been changed from end of august to end of sept for 12-16 year old)you need a health pass- basically either an antigen test every 48 hours to enter park or be fully vaccinated and use NHS app. You also need sworn statement which can be printed off and filled out from gov website.

Everyone 11 and over needs antigen test no earlier than 3 days before coming home.

PCR tests for over 5s I think needs booked before travel home as you need the reference number for passenger location form which is to be completed 48 hrs prior to arrival in UK.

Living care antigen tests £25 each.
