The web suggests that Venezuela also requires these certificates for
travellers from countries affected by yellow fever.
Also for travellers from the UK (not affected!):
"A Yellow Fever vaccination certificate is not a requirement to enter
Venezuela, but there have been cases where officials have illegitimately
fined travellers who have been unable to produce such a certificate.
Some airlines travelling to Venezuela will insist you have a Yellow Fever
vaccination jab before boarding the plane unless you can produce your
vaccination certificate. You are advised to check with your airline
before travelling to Venezuela."
