Entry requirements can be demonstrated via the NHS COVID Pass or NHS COVID Pass Letter, Self-declaration or exemptions, evidence is not required for exemptions.

NHS COVID Pass

The NHS COVID Pass allows people to demonstrate that they are at a lower risk of carrying COVID-19 and transmitting it to others, through vaccination, testing or natural immunity.

The COVID pass will show evidence of COVID immunity or exemptions:

  • two weeks after completing a full course of vaccination, whether that requires two doses or one dose – after two doses of the Moderna, AstraZeneca or Pfizer vaccines, or after one dose of the Janssen vaccine
  • with evidence of a negative PCR or rapid lateral flow test taken within 48 hours of entry to a venue, with both at-home and on-site (where available) being accepted – a lateral flow test taken at home will need to be reported into the public reporting system
  • with proof of natural immunity shown by a positive PCR test result for COVID-19, lasting for 180 days from the date of the positive test and following completion of the self-isolation period

Exemptions

There will also be a small number of exemptions for individuals who have a medical reason which means they cannot vaccinate or test. These individuals will need to self-declare their medical exemption directly with you.

  • There is also an exemption for people who have received a trial vaccine as part of a formally-approved COVID-19 vaccine trial in the UK will be able to prove their status through the NHS COVID Pass or with a letter confirming their participation in the trial. All trial participants have received confirmatory letters:
  • Individuals under 18 should not be required to demonstrate COVID status in settings where the NHS COVID Pass is used.
  • Individuals who have a medical reason which means they cannot be vaccinated or tested may be asked to self-declare this medical exemption

List of exemptions

  • Under 18
  • Medically exempt
  • Receiving end of life care where vaccination is not in the individual’s interests
  • with learning disabilities or autistic individuals, or with a combination of impairments which result in the same distress, who find vaccination and testing distressing because of their condition and cannot be achieved through reasonable adjustments such as provision of an accessible environment
  • With medical contraindications to the vaccines such as severe allergy to all COVID-19 vaccines or their constituents
  • Who have had adverse reactions to the first dose (for example, myocarditis)
  • Exempt whilst under a COVID trial
