NHS COVID-19 app - Create a coronavirus NHS QR code for your venue

Businesses across Wales and England like pubs, restaurants, hairdressers and cinemas, are being encouraged to have NHS QR code posters visible on entry, so customers who have downloaded the new NHS COVID-19 app can use their smartphones to easily check-in.

QR codes will be an important way for individuals to record their movements helping the NHS Test, Trace, Protect system.

You should create and display a QR code if you are:

• a business, place of worship or community organisation with a physical location that is open to the public
• an event which is taking place in a physical location

If you have more than one venue, you need to create a separate QR code for each location. 

The NHS QR code and check in function is in addition to existing measures. Venues in Wales that are legally required to collect and keep a record of visitors will still need to do so.

Venues should download the QR codes from the GOV.UK website.

Further information can be found on the GOV.Wales website.
