Answer
The status certification service an individual accesses depends on where their general practitioner (GP) is registered. NHS Digital has established bi-directional live data flows between England and Scotland which update both the GP record and NHS COVID Pass status. Individuals who have received 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 have a National Health Service number. To use the NHS COVID Pass within the NHS App, an individual must be registered with a GP. However, any individual with an NHS number can access the NHS COVID Pass via NHS.UK.
