The EU COVID-19 digital certificate will be issued to people who have been sick, vaccinated or tested for coronavirus in order to simplify border control procedures. However, each country may set its own requirements for incoming persons.
According to Karolis Baltrušaitis, Director of CGI Lithuania, at the press conference, the certificate is generated even after receiving a single vaccine.
“It is very important to emphasize that (certified, aut. P.) It will also appear when there is a vaccine (yes, aut. P.). But then you have to check if you will be accepted with that vaccine in that country. Because the certificate generates the information you have, ”said K. Baltrušaitis at the press conference.
