Is it necessary to provide a new certificate to travellers who were vaccinated and issued with the old version between 15 June 2007 and 15 December 2007?
It is not mandatory to provide the traveller with a new certificate. However, if the traveller requests it a new ICVP it can be provided, assuming that all the necessary information is available, i.e. date of vaccination, manufacturer and batch number of the vaccine. It is important that the re-issuing practitioner is satisfied that the vaccine was given. The new certificate should show the date of the original vaccination, not the re-issue date.
