The European Commission adopted three new equivalence decisions certifying that COVID-19 certificates issued by Cabo Verde, Lebanon and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) are equivalent to the EU Digital COVID Certificate on 10 December 2021. As a result, the three countries will be connected to the EU's system and their COVID-19 vaccination and test certificates will be accepted under the same conditions as the EU Digital COVID Certificate. At the same time, Cabo Verde, Lebanon and the UAE agreed to accept the EU Digital COVID Certificate for EU nationals traveling to the three countries.
COVID-19 vaccination and test certificates issued by the United Arab Emirates in accordance with the ‘Alhosn EU Pass’ system shall, for the purpose of facilitating the right of free movement within the Union, be considered as equivalent to those issued in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2021/953.
