COVID Vaccines

Snowball6

My husband had his first vaccine in England and the second in Bulgaria.  When we go back I will be in the reverse position.  Can anyone tell me where we stand when it comes to documentation and proof?

There’s no official documentation or proof of vaccination being given in U.K. at present, so until that happens it’s impossible to know what will be required. It’s safe to say the NHS will only be able to verify what it gave you, hopefully the same will be done by BG health authority.

If it was me I might try to get the record card translated, although things like Batch numbers and dates should be universally understood.

I work for the NHS at mass vaccination centres in Wales and our system isn’t communicating with NHS England so I wouldn’t hold much hope for international relations yet.
