Covid vaccination certificate and health pass: what is it for?
The vaccination certificate is particularly useful for obtaining the famous "sanitary pass" that the Government has put in place since June 9, 2021, the date of the reopening of many establishments open to the public. Following the announcements of the President of the Republic during his televised address on July 12, the use of this "passport" was extended on July 21. It has become essential for accessing events and places bringing together more than 50 people (shows, festivals, sporting events, theme parks, fairs, shows, etc.). During the month of August, it will also be compulsory to enter bars and restaurants, but also to take the train or the plane over long distances, even while staying in Spain.
Finally, since July 1, the health pass has been adapted to European standards to become the "EU digital Covid certificate" and facilitate the crossing of borders, for personal or professional travel (to find out more about the health pass, consult the questions and answers page on the Government website).
