UK now accepts NADRA issued COVID-19 vaccine certificates from Pakistani travellers
London: The United Kingdom has allowed Pakistani travelers to carry certificates issued by the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) as proof of vaccination.
Per the report, Britain's High Commissioner to Pakistan, Christian Turner, has previously confirmed that the NADRA-issued vaccination certificate was not acceptable in Britain.
Turner also admitted that the United Kingdom's decision to place Pakistan on the red list was "highly disappointing" because the move had disrupted contact between the citizens of the two countries. The move, according to Turner, adversely affected a lot of people.
Pakistan was removed from the red list and was placed on the amber list on September 22 along with several other countries.
It should be noted Chinese vaccines are still not recognized in the United Kingdom.
Meanwhile fully vaccinated Pakistanis with one of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) authorized vaccines — including Pfizer, Moderna, Oxford AstraZeneca, or Janssen (Johnson & Johnson) — are permitted to enter the UK and exempted from quarantine and testing under the rules.
