Good news for administrative simplification: the user of the TousAntiCovid application will have nothing to do for his health pass to be transformed, almost as if by magic, into a vaccination pass. After the approval of Parliament, the Covid-19 screening tests, whether PCR or antigenic, will soon no longer be sufficient to go to places subject to the new vaccination pass. The entry into force of the new sesame, reserved for vaccinated and recently contaminated, will not modify the form of the 2D-DOC QR Code integrated since last June in the Notebooks section of the TousAntiCovid application. The same principle applies to printed QR codes.
The transition will be smooth because the entire evolution of the device is based on the TousAntiCovid Verif (TAC Verif) app, the QR Code reader which instantly scans and checks the validity of a pass.
Developed by IN Groupe (formerly Imprimerie Nationale), this software uses cryptography to verify the digital signature of the pass and identify false or expired ones.

"There will be nothing to do for people who already have a valid health pass because TAC Verif will synchronize with the new algorithms and will automatically implement the new health rules", we confirm to the Secretary of State in Digital by Cédric O.
TAC Verif operators, such as restaurants, leisure venues or airlines, will only have to update their application on iOS or Android.
To avoid any oversight, this update will be done automatically after four hours provided that the control terminal is connected to the Internet.
The application will download the keys for reading the electronic signatures of the vaccine pass.
The control of vaccination certificates will therefore always be possible offline and without using personal data servers.
