The state-owned IT company Informatsionno Obsluzhvane is developing a functionality to make the service available and the holders of the old version of the certificate will be bale to receive a document meeting the requirements of the EC regulation, without an electronic signature. The new format is expected to be available for downloading after June 4.

"The re-issuance of the old version of the certificate in the new format through the website of the National Health Information System is made for the convenience of citizens, which will save them time. They do not need to visit GPs or vaccination centres. This will also prevent crowding, said CEO Ivaylo Filipov. According to him, it will be possible to save the electronic document directly on a mobile device or laptop, which will make it easier for the vaccinated in case of possible inspections by the authorized bodies.

Every citizen who already has a certificate will have the opportunity to obtain an electronic version of the new European format by entering their personal identity number; ID card number and the national reference number of one of the two vaccines described in the old document. The reference number is located in the lower left corner of the old certificate. Foreign citizens will fill in the personal number of the foreigner and the number of the document for permanent residence in Bulgaria, respectively. The system will allow the download of the document only if all entered data are filled in correctly, he explained.
