India has in the past asked several European countries to accept Covishield and other vaccines being used in India for Indian nationals travelling to Europe.
"Poland has recognized #Covishield as a vaccine equivalent to those recognized by the European Union, exempting from quarantine after entering the territory of the Republic of Poland," the Polish Embassy here said in a tweet on Friday.
