'Check jab letter before travel' warning

Isle of Man vaccination letter not valid at all travel destinations.

The Manx government is warning international travelers setting off from the island to double-check entry requirements before they travel abroad.

Some countries are refusing to accept the Isle of Man's proof of vaccination letter.

The certificates are currently being issued by Manx Care as a work-around solution until island residents can be included in the NHS app. 

When this happens islanders will have their vaccination status uploaded to the internationally-recognised technology.

Health Minister David Ashford says in the meantime you should check carefully before setting off.
