For vaccination certificates the JMC states:

“Adults who have been vaccinated and have passed at least nine (9) months after the second dose or, in the case of single-dose vaccines, from the single dose, are considered fully vaccinated if they have received the booster dose.”

At 6 months the validity of the disease certificate

Regarding the disease certificates in the JMC, it is reminded that the following are issued:

a) after laboratory testing by PCR for coronavirus COVID-19, within fourteen (14) days after the first positive test;

b) especially for the fully vaccinated, in accordance with the provisions of par. 2, and after a positive control using the rapid detection of coronavirus antigen COVID-19 (rapid test).

The key point of the JMC for the disease certificates states that now “the validity of the disease certificate lasts up to one hundred and eighty (180) days after the above single or first positive test”.

The first positive test is performed by

(a) a public authority in accordance with its legislation; or

b) reference laboratories in public or private and includes the name of the person, as indicated on the identity card or passport.

Regarding the unvaccinated individualsif a repeat laboratory test is performed by the PCR method after one hundred and eighty (180) days of validity of the disease certificate plus one (1) day and it is positive, no disease certificate is re-issued, however, in compliance with the required public health protection measures.

Regarding the vaccinated individualsfor adults who have been vaccinated with either two (2) doses of the vaccine or the single-dose vaccine and are re-infected with coronavirus COVID-19 for the second time within the validity period of the vaccination certificate (ie within nine (9) months of the administration of the second or single dose), a re-infection certificate is issued, which lasts one hundred and eighty (180) days.
