Minister for Economy and Attorney-General Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum says as more adults in Fiji are fully vaccinated, they are developing secure vaccine passports which are essentially digital vaccination certificates.

While delivering 2021/2022 National Budget, Sayed-Khaiyum says you can prove if you have been vaccinated and also show recent COVID-19 test results.

He says this digital tool will be available in two forms - a personalised “digital wallet” whereby Fijians can have their vaccination and COVID-19 test information right on their smartphones or paper printed with readable parts such as barcodes or QR codes.

Sayed-Khaiyum adds they are calling these passports which usually you only need to travel internationally, but these digital certificates will have domestic and international applications.
