Booster Question
I got my Pfizer booster shot 9 months and 9 days after the 2nd dose of my 2 dose Pfizer vaccines. I am going to France. Do you think I'll still be allowed entry without getting tested even though my booster is 9 days over the 9 month rule?

Seems the French gov website mandates that the booster must be received within 9 months of the last dose:

Are airlines/customs not enforcing this rule?

What this means is that IF your initial series was completed 9 months prior to travel, you must receive a booster. As has been explained to you, there is no expiration date to the booster. This has been asked and answered numerous times.

Not at all. While the first two vaccinations expire after 9 months, the moment you get a booster, everything is fine after 8 days. The wording of the government site is incorrect.
