Update: My Vaccine Pass to be voluntary

From 4 April 2022, businesses, such as events, hospitality and close-contact services, will not be required to use My Vaccine Passes.

If they wish, most businesses have the option of limiting access to their premises to people with a My Vaccine Pass (as a condition of entry).
