The EU Digital COVID Certificate is a document which is issued to help facilitate enable the safe and free international movement of people across the EU during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The underpinning EU Digital COVID Certificate regulation concerns the issuing and verification of certificates for medical events including vaccination, recovery, and testing related to COVID-19.

A person who underwent a medical event, including a full course of vaccination, in an EU country outside of Ireland, must request a Digital COVID Certificate from the issuing authorities in that specific EU country.
