Then it appears. When I print the pdf though it's not there. Is a screenshot of the barcode sufficient for travel? In my experience, yes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, someone has to pay for Michelle Mone's dodgy PPE, and all the other Covid-related dodginess and it isn't going to be them.

So their bodies can’t fight? That’s the question. They are not very forward in giving real data. So it’s a guessing game for everyone. they call it data protection. Another question is who are they protecting? Plenty of data In surveillance reports, most of deaths in 80+ categories & no one under 40 https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/most-covid-deaths-in-people-aged-80/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might depend on the staff member you meet at the border. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might depend on the staff member you meet at the border. I’ve not flown into Switzerland. But my experience has been that almost anything will get you checked in and on the plane. There are very few checks on arriving now. But, when there were, I’ve got into E, BG, I, GR, F with screen shot of the most recent vaccine shot rather than the full .pdf or printed certificate Over the next 2 or 3 weeks I’ll be entering IRL, E, F, E, BG and E again. I’ve downloaded, e-mailed, screenshot and printed. But my go to, where required, will be the screenshot. Paul did F, CH, I, GR & BG, by road, in February on a screenshot. He’s done GR, I, E, by ferry in the last week on screenshots. ( CH was only for an hour. He was heading for Montblanc tunnel, took a wrong turn, bought a vignette, before he realised ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gave me a nice green tick. So it seems that all that us needed is the barcode. Fingers crossed. I can always log on to the app in emergency!

It's not a full vaccination. It's shows on my record with a bar code but does show if I print the certificate. Is that the same for everyone?

It says you’ve got a certificate which is within time validity and using the right vaccines. But it’s not what is used at the border. It’s a question of whether the reader will accept a screen shot, or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
