COVID-19: Digital vaccine certificates to help European travel ‘ready in June at latest’- By Lucia Binding (SKY News) / Mar 31 2021
Spain’s foreign minister says the EU Parliament has agreed to fast track the vaccine certificates scheme.
EU digital vaccine certificates will be ready in June at the latest, Spain’s foreign minister has said.
European Union leaders agreed last month to work on the certificates to try to kickstart the tourism industry.
Speaking on Wednesday, Arancha Gonzalez Laya said the scheme would be a good tool for European citizens and “if all goes well, we will have a vaccination certificate in June at the latest”.
“If it can be in mid-May, better but not later than June,” she added.
The certificates would not prevent those without the jab from travelling, Ms Gonzalez Laya said, but people who had one would be able to pass through EU borders faster.
