CoronaCheck is the official app of the Netherlands for showing coronavirus entry passes. The app is developed by the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport. With this digital tool, you can create a certificate with QR code of your negative test, vaccination, or recovery. This allows access to certain venues and activities abroad. Or at the border. The app works like this: Important: first make sure you are vaccinated or have tested for coronavirus. • Before departure, check on www.netherlandsworldwide.nl whether the country you want to visit requires a coronavirus pass. Also, check which certificate you specifically need at your destination. • With the CoronaCheck app you can create a certificate based on your vaccination or coronavirus test results. You do this by retrieving your details via DigiD or via the retrieval code you received if you got tested at a test location other than the GGD. • You can create a vaccination certificate from your vaccination, create a test certificate from your negative coronavirus test result, or create a recovery certificate from your positive coronavirus test result. • The QR code of your certificate may be checked at the entrance of venues and activities. And also at international borders. This is proof that you have been vaccinated, have had coronavirus or did not have coronavirus at the time of testing ## Key features - Generate digital coronavirus entry passes - Create QR code certificates - Proof of vaccination - Proof of negative test - Proof of recovery - Facilitates international travel ## Recent user reviews (10 of 36) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/coronacheck-netherlands/id1548269870/reviews.md ### 4/5 — International certificate disappeared *2022-10-15, version 4.7.0* With the latest update (4.7.0) the international certificate older than a year still disappeared although the app comments mentions this was fixed… ### 4/5 — Wacht nog op de zomerupdate! *2022-02-10, version 2.8.0* Prima app! De 4 sterren zeker waard. Zodra de winterpoppetjes in de animatie vervangen zijn door een zomersere versie stel ik mijn rating bij naar 5 sterren. Veel functioneler dan dat kan het namelijk niet worden. Puik werk Rijksoverheid 👍 ### 1/5 — Extreme gov overreach *2022-01-28, version 2.8.0* Sad day for any Dutch person when they’re forced to use so an Orwellian app to participate in society. ### 1/5 — App is a joke *2022-01-18, version 2.7.1* I traveled to the Netherlands caught Covid on the plane. Tested positive and am trying for weeks to get an international recovery document but needs this app to download the document. After calling in for so many times they placed me on a emergency ticket that takes 3-30 days to arrive before I can activate this app AND get to my recovery document. Rebooked my flight and still no email. I need to fly out in 6 days if my pcr comes back positive I am F***. Lousy system and a horrible app ### 5/5 — Great app *2021-12-19, version 2.6.2* I got vaccinated abroad and the GGD made it very easy to add a foreign proof of vaccination at the center in Utrecht. This app is great and has worked very well domestically and abroad. ### 1/5 — This APP is DISCRIMINATORY! *2021-12-07, version 2.6.1* This app promotes discrimination and exclusion of people. ### 1/5 — SOLUTION - To This Terrible Rollout in NL *2021-12-05, version 2.6.1* Heading from the US to Netherlands and as you can read below, unless you have or can get a DigiID, you’re not getting a QR code in this app (as a US citizen anyway). However, I was in Switzerland and Germany recently who do offer this common sense solution for travelers and those QR codes work in the CoronaCheck Scanner that Dutch business require/use. Download the CoronCheck app and see if yours will recognize (assuming you have one from another country in the EU). Good luck. ### 1/5 — help! *2021-11-29, version 2.5.2* please help the US people!! ### 1/5 — Can not import proof of vaccination *2021-11-13, version 2.5.0* Very useful app when you live in the Netherlands and have been vaccinated there. However, when you live abroad and have been vaccinated abroad (even as Dutch passport holder with a DigiD), there is no possibility to upload any international proof of vaccination in this app. I hope this can be improved, so all international travellers can use the app efficiently when visiting the Netherlands. ### 1/5 — Worthless *2021-11-11, version 2.5.0* I have both vaccinations in the NL but have never been able to use the app to access the QR code. It takes me to DigiD to sign in (through safari) and then tells me I’ve been inactive for more than 15 min going back through safari to this app. I can print my QR code’s on CoronaCheck punt NL so that’s what I will use if necessary. I was able to bring up negative test on the app w code from GGD. Updated to say nothing has changed.
