We would like to draw your attention that the « Vaccine Pass » is now mandatory in France since end of January 2022 and replaces the former « Health Pass » to access places that are open to the public, such as cinemas, museums, cafés and restaurants, hotels as well as the IRCAD Institute which welcomes participants in the framework of its courses and seminars. Thus, a PCR test without vaccination is no longer sufficient to take part in our courses.
The vaccine pass includes a proof of the following (one of the 3 items is sufficient):
Further information about the new vaccine pass can be found at :
We very much hope to be able to count on your kind understanding of those rules which have been set by the French Government and which our Institute is required to apply
