The addition will enable those who have had their booster or third dose to travel to countries including Israel and Croatia which have introduced a time limit for the vaccine to be valid for quarantine-free travel.
Health and social care secretary Sajid Javid said: “We want to make it as easy as possible for people to show their vaccine status if they are travelling abroad.
“This update to the NHS Covid Pass will mean people can have their complete medical picture at their fingertips if they are going on holiday or seeing loved ones overseas.”
Booster and third doses will not be added to the domestic Covid Pass as it is not a current requirement for individuals to receive booster doses to qualify as fully vaccinated. It is also not currently necessary to show evidence of a booster for travel into England.
More than 13 million booster and third jabs have been administered in the UK, with the programme now being extended to those aged 40-49.
Since its launch on 17 May, almost 20 million people have accessed the Covid Pass via the NHS App.
Booster and third doses will show up automatically in the digital Covid Pass and will be visible from midday on Friday for users in England but will not immediately be available via the Covid Pass letter service. The government said this will be updated “in due course”.
The booster vaccine will appear on the Covid Pass in Wales from 29 November.
