Answer

My officials are currently working to include booster vaccines within the COVID Status certificates. It is anticipated that the functionality will be available on the app from 27th January 2022.

In the interim, those undertaking international travel may apply for a booster certificate (in PDF form) which contains an internationally recognised QR code.
