Answer
NHS Digital has established live bi-directional data flows between England and Scotland which can demonstrate both vaccine doses on the general practitioner (GP) record and NHS COVID Pass.
Individuals who have had one or both of their primary course vaccines administered in Scotland can access the NHS COVID Pass, provided they are registered with a GP in England or otherwise have a National Health Service number. Individuals who are registered with a GP in Scotland can access the Scottish certification service, which will demonstrate their vaccination status anywhere in the United Kingdom.
