Residents who need to provide proof of their vaccination status for international travel or to attend events will soon have two options to obtain their COVID vaccine certificate.
The Department of Health and Social Care in the Isle of Man has worked with DHSC colleagues in the UK to provide Island residents access to a digital or paper copy of their NHS COVID Pass in a safe, secure and internationally recognised format.
Residents will have access to the NHS COVID Pass website and once logged in will be able to view and download a specific digital UK NHS COVID Pass, or print it as a PDF document. The digital COVID Pass provides a QR code which is internationally recognised as proof of vaccination status, based on information shared by Manx Care with the UK NHS.
The web-based NHS COVID Pass service requires individuals to set up their own unique NHS login via this link: https://covid-status.service.nhsx.nhs.uk/ Manx residents are encouraged to register if they haven’t done so already, noting that login registrations may be delayed when demand is high, and people should register at least two weeks before they wish to use the pass.
The NHS COVID Pass website and Freephone call centre service are due to commence for Isle of Man residents within the next fortnight, subject to final legal documentation being in place.
