An EU Digital COVID certificate of recovery is available from 11 days after a positive PCR test carried out by the HSE, and is valid for no more than 180 days after the positive test, as per the EU Regulation.

Individuals can now fill out an online form to request a certificate of recovery or call the EU Digital COVID Certificate helpline directly.
