Answer
A solution to provide NI Citizens with certified proof of their vaccination status to facilitate International Travel was deployed on 2 July 2021. It adheres to EU and WHO specifications for such certificates and produced to the agreed UK format. The NI Executive has not yet established a policy on Domestic Use of Covid vaccination information.
My Department has no responsibility over entry requirements of UK commercial companies for access to their services. Authorities in the Republic of Ireland have published details of the documentation required to meet their Regulations.
