I am both a UK and EU citizen (Irish), triple jabbed in UK with NHS passport. The EU has launched its own digital Covid passports. Do I need to get one to visit or will my existing UK NHS passport suffice? If I do need one, how do I get it? 

Do you need to show passports to enter restaurants and bars in the area?

Your NHS covid vaccination certificate will be fine for entering Spain, they are not currently required for access to bars and restaurants but that could all change very soon if the Junta De Andalusia get their proposals agreed in court....

As you have been double jabbed in spain you can download your EU vaccination certificate through the Salud Andalusia app, this will allow you entry back into Spain if you don't have a printed copy of the same....

Hi,  we have obtained our EU COVID certificates as we are Irish passport holders but who have UK vaccines and booster.  You can apply for your EU certificate through the link in the website of the Irish Department of foreign Affairs.  You will need to have your UK vaccine certificate and your Irish passport at hand whilst completing the online form as you have to upload pics of the QR code of your 2nd vax and your passport as far as I can remember.   It’s an easy process and you will be told straight away if you application is successful.  Hope this helps.  If you need anything more let me know

Well done for getting a booster jab in UK after having the first 2 in Spain..... we have been 4 months trying to get on the UK system to have a booster here in UK...This morning we gave up and went for what the UK thinks is our first Covid!!!!! No other way to do it after lots of promises and call you backs to get us on the system!!!
