How to get a recovery cert

Marymoore

I got covid but as I’m under 40 I couldn’t get a PCR test just an antigen.. so how do I go about getting a recovery cert for travel?

You will need a PCR test so you can apply for the recovery cert. It's a bit of a bollox of a system that they won't count positive antigen tests as proof of recovery.

You can still get a PCR test via the HSE site. It's just 'advised' that you use antigens instead. I'm 38 and only got a PCR this week for this exact reason. There are 100s of appointments available in test centres right now, demand has dropped off a cliff.

Certs are gone at 6am, why bother unless you require one to fly out?

How long ago did you have covid? Pcr could still be positive after infection for a few weeks.

For anyone who may need an updated certificate of vaccination or certificate of recovery for travel.

(Have other countries discontinued them yet?)
