The measure, announced by President Macron on July 12, is spurring vaccinations: it works, With the boom of bookings on the dedicated app. But France is not the only European country to reserve entry to restaurants, closed public places and transport for those who show a vaccination card.

Denmark and the Baltic Republics

Denmark was among the first countries to introduce mandatory Covid certification last spring. Restaurants, museums, cinemas, theaters, and hairdressers are only accessible to those who view the Coronapas app, which certifies a vaccination or tampon. The app was created prior to the European certification, and its purpose – before traveling abroad – was to make internal commutes safe. Opposite is the example of the Estonian app, which was also born very early but only for expatriate purposes: the Tallinn government has always said that it is against classifying citizens. By contrast, in Lithuania and Latvia, only vaccinated people can eat meals in restaurants, go to the gym, cinema and theater. Others sit outside, with strict distance rules and restrictions on the number of eaters and participants.

Germany and Austria

Restaurateurs and hoteliers can – but not mandatory, and rules vary from land to land and even from company to company – to require visitors to show it, and decide whether or not to grant entry. The rule is more mandatory in Austria, where hotels and restaurants are open, but a vaccination certificate or proof of recovery is required at the entrance, or a negative survey result. Registration follows by name and surname. But whoever enters can be without a mask. Hotels offer guest checks every 48 hours. These rules also apply to nightclubs – which can operate at 75% capacity – and are in effect until July 23, after which they will be updated.

Holland and Ireland

Only restaurants that apply this rule can operate at full capacity. Ireland has introduced temporary legislation, now in effect until the next three months, for indoor services, such as restaurants with no outdoor areas. At this point, access to restaurants and hotels is only allowed for those who have been vaccinated or fully recovered from Covid, and have a Covid certificate. Only later will access to unvaccinated people with a recent negative smear will be allowed. Allowed exceptions: Teens with parents and employees who do not wish to be vaccinated. Whoever forges user certificates will receive a fine of two thousand euros.
