IATA
Travel Pass
IATA Travel Pass allows you to store your COVID-19 health credentials securely on your phone and speed up your check-in at the airport. Securely share your passport details with participating clinics so that they can verify your digital identity before sending back your electronic COVID-19 test result. The test result is then validated against the travel rules enabling you to show and share evidence that you are fit to fly at the airport. If you hold a test certificate issued in the UAE, EU, Switzerland and Singapore, you can also upload your certificate directly onto the app.
Available on all Etihad flights between Abu Dhabi and Amsterdam, Athens, Barcelona, Brussels, Dublin, Frankfurt, Geneva, Madrid, Milan, Munich, Paris, Rome, Singapore, Vienna and Zurich.

The IATA Travel Pass application is a mobile application that enables you to create a digital version of your test results on your mobile phone. You can then securely share your passport details with clinics so that they can verify your digital identity before sending back your electronic COVID-19 test result. The test result is then validated against the travel rules enabling you to show and share evidence that you are fit to fly.
To use the IATA Travel Pass application, you can create your digital identity and load your flights by:
When you scan the QR code at the clinic this establishes a secured connection between the IATA Travel pass app on your phone and the clinic. This connection is used for the clinic to validate your digital identity and send the test result directly to your phone when the lab completes the analysis. The application then validates the test result against the travel rules for your itinerary to let you know if the test meets the requirements. You can then show the attestation that you are ready to fly to your airline to speed up the airport verification process.
For this pilot phase you can only use the IATA Travel Pass for an individual traveller not group bookings. Work is underway with IATA to roll out a family and group travel feature in the app.
Open your passport on the photo page. Scan the two lines of characters at the bottom of the page as prompted by the app.
You can load your flights by clicking on the "YOUR FLIGHTS" section of the App by selecting your airline and your day of travel.
All your information is stored on your phone, and IATA doesn’t save or even have access to your passport data.
When you share your data with a partner, the data is encrypted and sent directly from your phone to the partner. They only use it for the purpose you agree to and delete the data afterwards.
No one can access or share your data except you. If you choose not to share your data, no one will have access to it. When you choose to share your data with a partner, only that partner has access to that data.
The data you share is only used for the purpose you agree to at the time of sharing it and is deleted afterwards. If you would like to know more refer to Etihad’s data privacy policy.
A government or state cannot access any customer database, as there is no central database. Governments and immigration authorities will only receive information upon the passenger’s consent and action to share the necessary information to fulfil the travel requirements of the destination.
The app doesn’t contain a tracking code and the solution has been designed to support the opening of international travel by allowing travelers to share COVID-19 testing or vaccine information simply and securely.
