Greece, Germany kick off EU vaccination travel certificates

ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greece, Germany and five other European Union nations introduced a vaccination cer- tificate system for travelers on Tuesday, weeks ahead of the July 1 rollout of the pro- gram across the 27-nation bloc. The other countries starting early were Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Croatia and Poland, according to the European Commission. Greece, which depends heavily on tourism, has been pressing for the commonly- recognized certificate that uses a QR code with advanced security features. The certifi- cates are being issued to peo- ple who are fully vaccinated as well as those have already contracted the virus and developed antibodies and oth- ers who have had a PCR test within the last 72 hours. The documents will have both digital and paper forms. They’ll be free of charge, dis- tributed in the national lan- guage plus English and be val- id in all the bloc’s countries. “EU citizens are looking for- ward to travelling again, and they want to do so safely. Hav- ing an EU certificate is a cru- cial step on the way,” EU Health Commissioner Stella Kyriakides said. Greece’s digital governance minister, Kyriakos Pierrakak- is, said easier travel will open up within the EU as nations adopt the new verification standard. “What will happen is that countries will stop issuing certificates using their own convention and adopt the com- mon convention. That will simplify things considerably, because you can imagine the number of bilateral agree- ments that would otherwise need to be worked out,” Pier- rakakis told private Skai tele- vision. Kyriakides said in the next few weeks, all EU nations need to “fully finalize their national systems to issue, store and verify certificates, so the system is functioning in time for the holiday season.” Countries will be allowed to add extra vaccines to their individual entry list, including those that have not been for- mally approved for use across the EU. T h e E U C o m m i s s i o n believes that people who are vaccinated should no longer have to be tested or put into quarantines, regardless of where they are travelling to or from, starting 14 days after receiving their second shot.
