I met an American woman in France who was getting tested every 3 days until her vaccine certificate thingie was joined up onto the french app. It was in progress but taking too long and she was going to be in France for 3 months. America having no app at all isn’t great for them travelling.willem jongman wrote: ↑13 Oct 2021, 5:49pm This weekend a second office will open (in Groningen) to get non EU vaccinations recognized. Other towns will follow once their ict infrastucture is ready.
Yesterday we had a friend from the USA for dinner and he told us that his paper CDC vaccination record was accepted everywhere. It raised a few eyebrows but that was all.
For anyone here reading news reports about the NHS app failing I agree that it is erratic and sometimes 3/4G isn’t great in the bowels of airport terminals. Definitely worth printing your certificate from the app before travel. Also you can print it to Adobe or similar on your phone with any other travel evidence like locator forms before travel so it’s always accessible once opened even offline.
I’m now gearing up to get 7 family inc a boyfriend off to Norway for Xmas. It’s weird not having travelled for a couple of years and now going twice (that’s it though, no other plans). It’s like herding cats and rapidly getting very expensive.
