From now on, travelers with a Togolese vaccination pass will be able to use it in the European Union (EU) and vice versa. A joint press release from the Ministry of Posts and the Digital Economy, and the EU delegation in Togo said that the certificates issued in Togo are recognized in the European Union, making Togo the first country to acquire such recognition.
The statement attributes this development to the effective vaccination strategy adopted by Togo, which places the country among the best vaccinated countries in the sub-region.
To date, Togo has administered a total of 1.5 million doses, representing 18.2 doses per 100 inhabitants, and 6.1% of its population fully vaccinated, according to data compiled by the Our world in Data platform .
