The application for the immunity certificate can now be downloaded

The application “substituting” the plastic card proving protection against coronavirus infection is now available for download. The app is available here (after logging in).

The app will also be available on mobile phones with Android and iOS and will include the name of the vaccinee, the date of the vaccinations, and the type of vaccination – which is not on the plastic card-based security certificates.

However, when installing the application, only one QR code is displayed, below our name, number of shots, date of vaccination and the state of protection, the type of vaccination is not.

  • Read more about the app HERE.

Currently, there are eight countries accepting the Hungarian immunity certificate:

  • Bahrein
  • Romania
  • the Czech Republic
  • Slovenia 
  • Serbia
  • Turkey
  • North Macedonia
  • Montenegro

    The title of this article is disingenuous – it is proof of the old adage that news outlets prefer highlighting bad news instead of good news. The total death count is going to go up from Covid every day so why publish today’s total, when today’s data is the best combination of declining daily death rates and declining numbers of new infections, since the third wave hit? It almost seems like you were disappointed that the epidemic is declining.

    I agree with the above comment. It looks as though things are getting very much better, and that the vaccinations are paying off. Let’s be glad about that.
