Andalucia is to create a single covid health card for access to restaurants, nightlife, events and football matches.

The Andalucian Government has advocated the creation of a unique Covid passport so that it becomes a “single health card” in Schengen areas that is valid for use in all establishments, and public transport, announced  Vice President of the Board, Juan Marín.

The Andalucian vice president affirmed that it is a “useful tool” and considered it “normal” to ask for this passport “to go to a restaurant, to football or to get on a plane or train as long as the virus is still with us and it should not be considered something extraordinary.

“It would help us to be more secure in health matters, so displaying this passport would be like showing the DNI when the Guardia Civil or the Police stop us, nothing happens, this is the same,” said the vice president.
In addition, Marín highlighted the ease of obtaining and using this passport by having the possibility of downloading it on a mobile phone thus being able to show it from the device. This passport would certify that the person is vaccinated twice and would allow people access to any event, such as next season’s football matches in the Spanish League.

      Your RELATED item needs to be updated. Nightlife will not require covid passports. The Covid passport (or negative Covid test) requirement to enter discotheques and night clubs is postponed until the TSJA gives the go-ahead to the measure in Andalusia.
