Like China and the European Union, Japan will issue digital vaccine passports to citizens who have been immunized against the coronavirus, in order to facilitate international travel. The Japanese government could add the digital health certificate to an app slated for release in April that would hold digital certificates for negative test results and connect to a new system that tracks progress in the government’s vaccination program. The app would allow citizens to provide proof of vaccination to board a plane or check into a hotel. The Japanese government will consider EU vaccination certificates and the “CommonPass” universal digital certificate in crafting its certification standards.
