UK to accept Cayman’s digital COVID vaccination record

HSA-issued vaccination card for those inoculated with the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine on island.

From Monday, 1 Nov., the UK will accept Cayman’s digital vaccine certificates through the Health Services Authority patient portal, the Governor’s Office announced on Friday.

This means people who have signed up for the portal will be able to use their digital COVID-19 vaccination record as proof of their inoculation status.

In a press release, the Governor’s Office encouraged people to sign up for the portal, because it is “the main platform for quick access to your digital Covid-19 vaccine record”.

Governor Martyn Roper said in the release, “I am very pleased that Cayman’s own vaccine certification is now been accepted as proof of vaccine status by UK Authorities. This removes a significant burden from HSA staff at this time when they are under such pressure dealing with our cases of community transmission. It also makes going to the UK an easier process for everyone travelling from Cayman.”

  1. Well isn’t that just wonderful!!

    The UK is now accepting Cayman‘s HSA verification as proof of vaccinations.

    Yet Cayman is still refusing to accept the US government’s CDC verification as proof of US citizens’ vaccinations.

    What is happening with the development of this “portal“ that Mr. Panton mentioned in his press conference last week?
