View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 631, 665 and 773 together.
A Digital COVID Certificate is issued following a medical event related to Covid-19 (vaccination, recovery or testing) in the EU Member State. Digital COVID Certificates are issued to persons by email or post to persons vaccinated in Ireland for both primary series and booster vaccinations.
Digital COVID Certificates, for which the required data and an email or a postal address is available, are now being issued. Data quality checks are being completed for any remaining certificates to ensure all relevant details are included in the vaccination system.
Any individual, vaccinated in Ireland, who have yet to receive a Digital COVID Certificate by email or post, should contact the DCC helpline 1800 807 008 (or +353 76 888 5513 when calling from abroad) for assistance and to ensure all details in the system have been updated.
