The European Commission announced today that the British NHS COVID pass will be accepted as full proof of vaccination, equivalent to the EU's current certificates, as of Friday.
This measure will allow NHS COVID pass-holders to prove their vaccination status when traveling, visiting bars or restaurants, and entering any other places one needs to show vaccination, such as museums, the Guardian reports.
Thus far, many countries have reached bilateral agreements with the U.K., but now the NHS COVID pass will be accepted across the whole bloc.
“Safer travel is a reality thanks to the EU digital Covid certificate, which is now the leading global standard: 45 countries in four continents are connected to the system and more will follow in the coming weeks and months. We are open to other countries to join our system,” said Didier Reynders, the EU commissioner for justice, in a statement.
Besides the U.K., vaccination certificates issued in Armenia will also be accepted, according to today's statement. In addition to the EU, 16 other countries will also now accept the NHS COVID pass, including Switzerland or Turkey.
