The EU Digital Covid Certificate
What is the Digital Covid Certificate?
With the EU Digital Covid Certificate, you will be able to show that you have:
- been vaccinated against Covid-19
- been tested with a negative result
- recovered from Covid-19.
Keep in mind that it is the country you are travelling to that determines what rules apply there. It is your responsibility to check whether you fulfil the requirements to be allowed to enter.
The Swedish eHealth Agency ("E-hälsomyndigheten") is responsible for the Digital Covid Certificate e-service in Sweden.

For those without e-identification or a registered home address
How to get a test certificate
- Check what requirements you must meet to enter the country you plan to go to. In most countries, the test certificates are only valid for a few days.
- Visit a caregiver that has joined the e-service Digital Covid Certificate. You will find them listed on this page (scroll down)
- The test will be performed by a professional.
- If your test result is negative, it will be submitted to the Swedish eHealth Agency. A test certificate will be sent to your digital mailbox if you have one. If you do not have a digital mailbox, the caregiver can give you your test certificate. Ask your caregiver if you are uncertain of how you will receive the certificate.
Recovery certificate
In certain cases, it will be possible to get a recovery certificate that confirms that you have recovered from a SARS-CoV-2 infection following a positive NAAT test. However, for most people it will be easier and faster to get a vaccination certificate or a test certificate (with a negative test result).
