EAEU created mechanisms for mutual recognition of documents on vaccination against COVID-19

The Board of the Eurasian Economic Commission adopted a recommendation for free movement of citizens within the territory of the Eurasian Economic Union. The recommendation covers all possible mechanisms for mutual recognition of documents on vaccination against COVID-19 presently used in the EAEU countries.

Mutual recognition is granted to state-approved documents certifying vaccination against COVID-19 as hard copies or in digital format using national information systems including mobile applications.

Adoption of this document is especially relevant given the volatile COVID-19 situation, which might require to reimpose previously lifted restrictions on border crossing.
