Irish hauliers travelling on direct routes from Ireland to France will no longer require proof of a negative Covid-19 test, after the French government amended current legislation with immediate effect.

The Department of Transport here has said the move comes in light of the "very low" Covid-19 positivity rates among drivers of commercial vehicles.

It says it is also in line with EU Green Lane recommendations. The Department has said that from 28 January up to the end of yesterday, of 5,743 antigen tests carried out on drivers, 14 tests came back as Covid-positive – a positivity rate of 0.24%.

Drivers travelling from Britain to France however, or from Britain to the Netherlands, will still require proof of negative Covid19 test.
