The European Commission proposes the creation of a Digital Green Certificate to facilitate safe free movement within the EU during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n
The Digital Green Certificate will serve as proof that the holder has been vaccinated against COVID-19, received a negative test result for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, or has recovered from COVID-19.<\/p>\n
The certificates will be available free of charge, in digital or paper format, and will include a QR code to guarantee their security and authenticity.<\/p>\n
The Commission will establish a gateway to ensure all certificates can be verified across the EU and will support member states in the technical implementation of the certificates.<\/p>\n
Member states remain responsible for deciding which public health restrictions can be lifted for travelers, but they will have to apply these exemptions in the same way to travelers holding a Digital Green Certificate.<\/p>\n
