DOES NOT WORK FOR US CITIZENS. Paid sfr 30 application fee only to be rejected as US vaccine card did not contain “a stamp by the CDC” which doesn’t even exist anyhow although the Swiss somehow feel that it does. COVIDCertificate is an unmitigated disaster. Thankfully most Swiss establishments are ignoring this unnecessarily complicated protocol and are accepting visitors on basis of presentation of a visitor’s photo ID and paper proof of vaccination, and of course a mask. Keep it simple Switzerland. Not everything has to be as complicated as a Swiss watch!!!

I can’t even get past the “import pdf” page bc COVIDCertificate keeps crashing.
Also, not enough info on coming from the US provided.

Beyond the fact a vaccinated person outside of the EU needS to send vaccination and other ID documentation to be evaluated. In the meantime you need to get rapid tests every 48 hours. Could not generate a transfer code in COVIDCertificate - had to rely on email. Could not get an SMS to open the PDF without using a local number as the US don’t recognize ‘00’ - please use the ‘+’ sign instead of ‘00’ and it will work!!

Completely incapable of handling foreign certificates yet required throughout Switzerland. Unbelievable.

Die App ist gut, aber was ich bemängle ist die fehlende Möglichkeit die ID hochzuladen. Dies würde das Umständliche hin & her beim Eintritt vermeiden und verbessern! 3 B: Bitte, bitte, BAG: schnellstmöglich ändern.

I am a Us tourist headed to Switzerland and registered via the website with my CDC card and other info. Canton Bern turned around my certificate quickly (1 day) but be aware they request you register five business days ahead of your trip. Used a ‘transfer code’ and when my Certificate was ready it loaded directly into COVIDCertificate . Also, I could scan my family’s QR codes that I received by email to keep all our certificates in one app.

COVID Certificate is the official app for storing and presenting Swiss COVID certificates.
In Switzerland, people who have been vaccinated, or who have tested negative or recovered from COVID can apply for a COVID certificate.
COVID certificate data is stored solely on the mobile device.
It is possible to store several COVID certificates in the app, e.g. for family members, or several COVID test certificates.
In the app, the required COVID certificate can be selected, and presented if desired.
COVID certificates are generated by the FOITT, but are not stored in a central system.
Use of the COVID Certificate app is voluntary and free of charge.
COVID certificates are protected by a digital seal (signature) and are thus forgery-proof.
It is developed by the Federal Office of Information Technology, Systems and Telecommunication FOITT on behalf of the Federal Office of Public Health.
All data contained in a certificate's QR code can also be displayed.
That is why it is not possible to obtain a copy of an issued certificate.
The app shows the time of your vaccination or test and how long ago you had the vaccination or test.
The use of the app is limited to Switzerland and is subject to Swiss law.
