German Consulate Canada statement : (Cominarty recognized but not Pfizer)
The vaccines listed on the website of the Paul Ehrlich Institute so far include only the vaccines named "Comirnaty," "COVID-19 Vaccine Moderna," "Vaxzevria," and "COVID-19 Vaccine Janssen." Sublicensed vaccines with other names or vaccines produced by the same manufacturer under a different name are not yet recognized But it's canada dot diplo dot de. .....and then click on the covid-19 section. It's just announced today So that means no one fully vaccinated in Canada or any other country that only has the word "Pfizer BioNTech" will be recognized :'( |
Also Pfizer-Biontech actually also sub-licensed the vaccine under the name "tozinameran", and one other (google it, there's a total of 3 sublicensed name of which Cominarty is 1 of them).
And that Consulate statement says "only Cominarty and no other Sublicensed name" So if the Canadian receipt only says "PfizerBioNtech" ...that doesn't say if it's Cominarty or Tozinameran. That's 2 different sublicensed name. And Germany is only accepting one of them. Basically the worry is the receipt/certificate from Canada will be too ambiguous to be reconigzed for travel to Germany. |
As you've already posted this in the proper forum for questions regarding entry requirements for Germany, namely the FT Germany forum, and as posting the same topic in multiple places - called cross-posting - is not permitted by FT Rules I've closed this thread.
