29 October 2021:  The European Commission is organising an information session on the latest release of the EU Digital Covid Certificate guidelines on the use of Digital Covid Certificates in traveller and online booking scenarios. The guidelines provide specifications for the support functions and services applicable to travel booking/check-in scenarios as well as some additional features enhancing the EU DCC digital wallet. In particular, they are intended to support Member States and other parties in considering inter alia how to organise DCC verification services for travellers to demonstrate their compliance with DCC requirements during online check-in.

This is a great opportunity where EU DCC technical contractor will be present and deliver a demonstration of the validation service. Airlines and any airline booking contractors can get a better understanding of the processes ahead, especially for airlines that are not benefiting from an online EU DCC verification service. This is also a service that should facilitate the passengers’ journey in advance of the airport, as per the recommendations of the Commission issued this summer.

Such a workshop will be organised on 9 November any time between 1500-1700.
