Vaccination confirmation is not the same
Everyone who is vaccinated receives a confirmation card at the vaccination point - it shows the name of the vaccinated person, the date of the first dose of the vaccine (along with the batch number of the preparation), the date of the next vaccination and the date of the second dose of the vaccine (also with the serial number).
The card should be kept in your medical records after receiving the second dose. However, it is worth knowing that the card received at the vaccination point is not an official confirmation of being vaccinated against COVID-19. For this reason, it is not recognized abroad, nor are it recognized by e.g. travel agencies.
