COVID Status: Languages and accessible formats

The NHS Scotland COVID Status paper certificate you receive will be in English.

You can get information about what the paper certificate tells you in other languages and alternative formats.

However, you’ll still need to show the original paper certificate written in English to show your COVID Status. For example, when travelling abroad. You do not need your paper certificate in a language to match the country you’re travelling to.
