Oh I misread your earlier post.
I thought you wrote State Dept. Didn't see that it was the state health dept.

I got vaccinated at a pop up walk in site in a park arranged by my local county. I then saw on CDC website your state health department should have a record of all vaccines done in the state so I contacted their data rights email address, and 7 days after I contacted them they have sent me a proper certificate with all the information on, signature of state health director and also state logo on it. Looks very good. I hope this will be enough now if the CDC card is not good enough for some countries.

Umm, there is already one at the top of the thread??? BTW, just about any established member is free to update the WIKI at any time. I would just strongly suggest trying to keep the format somewhat consistent, and be sure to include a link to validate the information posted.

I've suggested sticking to the CDC card as much as possible. At this point, it's already become the most used proof of vaccination in the US seen in Europe; and the CDC cards will likely remain that way for months to come.
Schengen countries' passport control are more likely to be or become more familiar with CDC cards than with health certificates issued by state/local government authorities within the US.

Is there anyone who experienced the procedure at TLV for vaccinated foreigners arriving into the country? I am going in a week and am slightly worried what might happen if my serological test does not turn up any antibodies. Also, how long do you think the test will take to process? Is everyone just waiting in an airport facility for the results? Any information would be greatly appreciated....

I am questioning the accuracy of this info in the wiki.
When looking at Timatic, third country citizens, who previously were allowed to travel to Iceland as tourists, are still banned from entering Iceland.
Well, I was checking it for Ukrainian citizens. Vaccination waives the testing requirement, but it does not override the travel ban.
As airlines generally follow what Timatic says and not some government website, I would caution to leave this info as it is in the wiki.

Iceland has direct flights from the US on Icelandair. Iceland has no such flights from Kiev.

Well, I believe you.
It's just strange that the new entry policy by Iceland is not reflected in Timatic.
Maybe someone who is more experienced with Timatic can help us to resolve this question.

It's more a question of whether the given country has provided a translation into English for a given policy.

Well, the practical problem is that an airline will deny boarding. So even, if Iceland is open (by law) it cannot be accessed.

For those wishing to travel to Bahrain, it seems like those vaccinated in the US, Canada, UK and EU will still need to do PCR tests and self-isolation:

Update from Georgia (country) - couple of friends there who are tour guides mentioned that tourism is slowly coming back. There were busloads of tourists from Israel, Gulf countries and Ukraine.
Anyone with any Covid vaccination can enter without quarantine. Alternatively, test on arrival and on third day staying in a hotel, if both negative - you are free.
