Vaccine Pass, Travel With Peace of Mind | Buying takeaways can be exempted from returning to the house through the mall. Do you need to bet the QR code?

However, after the measures were introduced, there are still people who are confused about the circumstances under which "vaccine passports" or "safe travel" will be exempted.

Except for the following three categories of designated persons, they can fill in the designated forms alternatives, including persons 65 years of age or older and 15 years or younger (persons 15 years or younger must be escorted to the listed premises if they have fulfilled the applicable "Safe Travel" regulations), persons with disabilities and others authorized by the government or the government For those authorized by the agency, there are nine categories of exemptions for the "vaccine passport", which means that the exemptions for the two measures are not equal.
