An NHS COVID Pass shows your coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccination details or test results. This is your COVID-19 status.
You may be asked to show your NHS COVID Pass:
- to travel abroad
- at events and venues asking for proof of your COVID-19 status in England, Wales or the Isle of Man

COVID-19 Vaccine Trials
If you were vaccinated as part of an official clinical trial in England or Wales, you can get an NHS COVID Pass for domestic events and venues.

If you cannot get an NHS COVID Pass, contact your clinical trial site.
