Third jab to be added to NHS England Covid Passport for travel

Booster jabs are to be added to the NHS Covid pass for travel from Friday, it has been announced.

It means travellers will be able to prove they have had the extra jab when visiting other countries.

The move comes as a number of countries, including Croatia and Austria, have introduced a time limit for the validity of the coronavirus jab.

Boosters will not be added to the domestic Covid pass.

Health Secretary Sajid Javid said: “We want to make it as easy as possible for people to show their vaccine status if they are travelling abroad.

“This update to the NHS Covid pass will mean people can have their complete medical picture at their fingertips if they are going on holiday or seeing loved ones overseas.”
