You can now use the Al Hosn app to quickly travel to European nations and countries that accept the International Air Transport Association (IATA) travel pass! The Al Hosn Travel Pass is accepted by all EU DCC (European Union Digital COVID Certificate-Regulation) member countries and IATA travel pass members.
A digital Covid certificate is recognised in Europe for travel purposes, displaying a negative result or demonstrating immunisation, hence the Al Hosn app has been accepted as well. This also implies that a PCR test or vaccine administered in the United Arab Emirates will be accepted in Europe!
The IATA travel pass is an app that helps you maintain your covid-19 PCR testing and immunisation records. It is utilised by both Etihad and Emirates airlines. So, if you’re flying to Europe with Emirates, make sure you’ve downloaded the IATA Travel Pass, then scan the Travel Pass QR code on the Al Hosn’s App and load the results back into the app.
This is fantastic news since you can now use the Al Hosn app to enter any public areas and activities in Europe rather than trying to figure out how to present your negative PCR test or vaccination certificate in a foreign country!
