Following the successful rollout of the initial implementation phase of the EU Digital COVID Certificate in Ireland, the Government is creating a specific portal to enable Irish citizens vaccinated outside of the EU, with vaccines authorised for use in Ireland, to obtain a COVID certificate valid in Ireland and across the EU.

This portal is currently being advanced on a cross departmental basis involving technical and process development, and resource management. It is expected that this portal will be launched in the coming weeks on a phased basis.
