Datapoint:

Original submission from 9/2 still pending (18 days). Travel on 9/25.
Submitted a second file 9/21 - it was approved in under 5 minutes.

Someone upthread suggested to (re)submit during French Business hours. That seems to work, but of course a few anecdotes does not equal evidence.

I went to getcovidpass.eu and was able to scan my pdf QR code, and it created a pass in my apple wallet. Hoping this is sufficient for entry into other countries, like Spain and Sweden.

It's France; away with such logic!

Did you submit within the existing application as a new "file"?

Or you used a new email address to resubmit?

What France time you submitted the one that got the QR within 5 min?

Just spent 5 days in Paris and was disappointed with the number of times I had to use the pass, twice and that’s only because I went looking for places to use it.

I submitted as a new file.
About 8:15 am CET.

HAS ANYONE FOUND ANY OTHER PHARMACIES THAT CAN OR WILL CONVERT THE CDC CARD TO PASS SANITAIRE? I’m near CDG but going to Versailles tomorrow.. wil be back in Paris in 2 days…

How long did it take you to get the pass? When you say you only had to show it twice, do you mean most places did not ask? do you think most pharmacies in Paris will issue you a Pass upon your showing proof of vaccination?

I applied online a couple of weeks ago and got mine within 20 minutes. No clue about pharmacies but that was plan B. At check in at the Hyatt they asked if i had one but they didn’t need to see it. I went to 2 museums both required it. That’s it. I did pass through Gare De Lyon and they were checking them for the long distance trains. I used the certificate to check in with Delta with no issues. Just remembered, there’s an art thing at the Arc and needed it to get past the barricades.

Thank you..I am hopeful that I will receive mine soon. I applied 21/2 weeks ago but i dont travel for 4 weeks so maybe thats why its taking so long.

I resubmitted under the same account. If you go to your file list, there is an "action" drop down to the right. There is an option to submit another file.

After the second submissions was accepted I went back in to delete the first one to hopefully help unclog their system a bit.

For all its flaws, the French system is lightyears better than for example Holland, where you can only get a Covid pass if 1) you show up at an appointment IN PERSON, and 2) have a Dutch social security number. If you don't have a Dutch SSN, you are SOL and the only way to get a pass is to get tested. Oh yes, forgot: every test-based pass is only valid for 24(!!) hours... insanity (it is 72 hours in France if you have to go that route). The irony is thate my French pass is just as valid in NL as the one you would get in NL itself. The EU isn't really doing much on the "U" front on this...

Thank you for this! Original application submitted September 5, still pending. Submitted a new file under the same account, went into review within 2 minutes and got the pass 3 minutes after that.

I opened my mail this morning and received a letter from Ministere Des Solidarites Et De La Sante along with a link to go to in order to print the certificate. I now have it. Question since I now have the Pass Sanitaire will I need to have a covid test within 732 hours before I can enter France ?

What time of day Paris time did you submit the new file?

I received this email, after I left France:
