The Russian Federation’s Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media said that you can obtain an electronic COVID-19 vaccination certificate by logging in to the Russian Federation Government Service Portal (портал госуслуг) now. For all users who have received two doses of the vaccine and have an account on the government service network, the certificate will be automatically displayed on the website's notification announcement and saved in their personal account. After vaccination, users who go to the government service network to register and confirm their account can also obtain a vaccination certificate.
"In the near future, not only will the Russian vaccination certificate be found, but the English certificate will also be automatically loaded.

In addition, people can also register and make an appointment to receive Russian-made vaccines on the government service network and mobile application.
"Vaccine Passport" controversy continues
Early, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov said that the policy of introducing "vaccine passport" to enter certain countries may lead to a new dividing line and may also violate human rights. He believes that the introduction of a "vaccine passport" should be carefully considered and all aspects should be taken into account.
htmlOn March 17, the European Commission submitted a draft electronic COVID-19 vaccination certificate. The certificate will contain information on COVID-19 vaccination for EU citizens, rehabilitation data after infection with COVID-19 or negative nucleic acid test results. Currently, the EU approved COVID-19 vaccines include Pfizer/BioNTech, Modena, AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson. Russia's "Satellite-V" vaccine and Chinese vaccines are not included in the EU vaccine list.Russian COVID-19 vaccine "Satellite-V". (Photo source: China News Service)
Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko said at the end of January that Russia expressed concern about the EU's "vaccine passport". He said such certificates should be based at least on WHO's rules and should include all WHO-certified vaccines, rather than on some internal EU rules.
