Sobyanin announced the prolongation of QR codes

A certificate issued to those who have been ill with covid-19extended from six months to a year. Previously, the corresponding decision was made at the federal level.

The validity of a QR code issued in Moscow to those who recovered from COVID-19 is extended to one year, in accordance with federal requirements, Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said in his blog.

Previously, confirmation that a person had been infected with the CORONAVIRUS was valid for six months. Now the certificates will be renewed, this will happen automatically. That is, the current six-month certificates will be extended on the last day of their term for another six months. If the semi-annual certificate has already expired, but less than 12 months have passed since the moment of recovery, then the QR code will automatically be extended for a year from the moment of recovery. New QR codes will immediately be issued for a year.

Also, in accordance with federal regulations, changes are being made to the expiration date of negative PCR tests. They will be valid not for three days, as before, but for two. QR codes issued after vaccination will still be valid for a year.

All changes come into effect on December 20.
