Re: Polio certificate
This "Peela Carad" is literally a yellow card that has the polio vaccine batch number and the date on which it was administered. Its easily available in public hospitals and airports.
If you don't have it and are traveling abroad, just reconfirm if the country you are landing in requires it. If it does, you have to get one made.

Re: Polio certificate
In the last 2 weeks I have travelled from KHI on Qatar Airways to Turkey via DOH and today on Emirates to UK via DXB.
I was not asked for the polio certificate.
Apparently some destinations may require it, do look online for entry information of the country you are travelling to.

Further, foreigners who have stayed more than 04 weeks in above-mentioned Countries should also have polio vaccination in order to travel to Egypt.

Re: Polio certificate
This is not new. I have been stationed in Cairo for almost three years now. A polio certificate was always required. Not only that but for a new visa, a dengue negative test is also required. Previously, the old version of the polio certificate, the yellow one, was acceptable, but now it has to be a NADRA-issued one, similar to the COVID-19 vaccination certificate.

Re: Polio certificate
I recently travelled from Karachi to Dammam via PIA, and no one asked for the polio certificate, either at Karachi or Dammam airport.
