Those who have received their booster dose will have to download their vaccination certificate again in the CovidSafeBE app, as it does not appear automatically, said the Digital Flanders agency.
To download the certificate for your booster dose, you have to press the "Check for new certificates" button at the bottom of the app, and register via Itsme or eHealth.
The certificate will be available in the app within two to seven days after registration. They can also be downloaded from the websites Mijn Burgerprofiel (only in Flanders), My Health, MyHealthViewer or Helena.
Requesting the certificate is also possible by mail or via the automatic menu of the helpdesk at 078/78 78 50 (Flanders), 02/214 19 19 (Brussels) or 071/31 34 93 (Wallonia).
