New Delhi: The COVID-19 vaccination status can be updated on Aarogya Setu mobile app through a self-assessment process and the facility will make it easier to check the vaccination status for travel purposes, the government claimed.

* As per the self-assessment, if a user has been administered both doses, then a double border will appear and his status will show 'vaccinated' (unverified). The Aarogya Setu icon will be of grey colour here as well.

* After the verification, for the users who have taken the first dose, the 'unverified' text will be removed. The grey shade icon will now show Aarogya Setu colours.
