Mewat Posted September 5, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I have a paper certificate (sorry, very old school me) showing my 2 vaccines and booster and I was wondering if anyone from Wales who has travelled can confirm whether or not this will still be valid for my cruise in October. I know that the English versions have an expiry date, but there is no expiry date on my Welsh one, so I was wondering if it will be OK.

Mewat Posted September 5, 2022 Author #2 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Sorry, I meant to say that it was originally ordered (?) in March for a cruise in May. Michele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobblehat71 Posted September 5, 2022 #3 Share Posted September 5, 2022 The last covid pass I downloaded in May had an expiry date just under the QR code on the top right of the certificate. They have extended the expiry dates now, I think they are now valid for up to 6 months. Not sure if they are the same if you order them by post.

Mewat Posted September 5, 2022 Author #4 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Thanks for replying Bobblehat71. There's definitely no expiry date under the QR code on mine, so I am hoping it will be OK. Michele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brynmelyndavid Posted September 5, 2022 #5 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I recently re-downloaded my certificate from the Welsh NHS app and I’m fairly certain I read during the process that it was valid for 6 months. It’s so easy to update it - just log in again and print a new one. There’s no charge and then you can be certain it’s valid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mewat Posted September 6, 2022 Author #6 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Thanks Brynmelyndavid. I have a paper certificate that was posted to me. I think I might try and download the digital version, just to be on the safe side. Michele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theardlies Posted September 9, 2022 #8 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Refreshed my digital version from NHS Wales in August and it lasted until February - I suppose to be able to show the 2nd booster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheila127 Posted September 9, 2022 #9 Share Posted September 9, 2022 As your paper version supplied and printed on letterheaded paper by NHS, has your vaccinations and booster information it should suffice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mewat Posted September 10, 2022 Author #10 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Thanks very much for that Sheila. I have also rung the NHS Wales covid number and they confirmed there is no expiry date on the letter version. Thanks everyone. Michele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
