San Marino Approves National Green Pass, Allowing Citizens And Residents To Move Freely
PR90505
HOVIK, Norway, July 7, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
The San Marino Great and General Council approves Decree-Law no. 109 of 16
June, which puts in place its own green vaccination pass. This equips citizens,
residents and others vaccinated in the territory with a certificate in line
with the EU standards.
The San Marino Digital Covid Certificate covers vaccination against Sars-Cov2,
past infection or negative test result, and has a validity of 1 week starting
15 days after the first vaccination dose or 9 months from the completed
vaccination cycle.
"The San Marino Digital Covid Certificate is an important tool that aligns the
Republic with the technological standards used by the EU, assuring total
interoperability while also adding a 'universal' certification method based on
blockchain technology," comments Engineer Lorenzo Spadoni, President of San
Marino Innovation.
The certificate contains two QR codes:
-- The first one aligns with the EU requirements;
-- The second one is verifiable by anyone anywhere. This is enabled by a Non
Fungible Token (NFT), i.e. a unique and non-repeatable certificate that
guarantees the immutability by being registered on VeChainThor public
blockchain.
This innovative solution was developed with the support of VeChain, one of the
world's leading public blockchain platforms. DNV is an independent leader in
assessment services and a pioneer in digital assurance solutions.
Renato Grottola, Global Director Growth and Innovation at DNV said: "The San
Marino Digital Covid Certificate is an extremely portable certificate. Anyone
can potentially verify a certificate without the need to download a specific
app. The use of VeChain's blockchain technology and, in particular NFT, makes
it possible to increase confidence in the authenticity of the information."

A national information system has been set up to make it possible to download
the certificate directly from one's own electronic record. All personal data
processing follows GDPR regulations. The minimum set of data required to verify
authenticity does not include any personal data.
Sunny Lu, CEO of VeChain, said, "Not long after we brought up the idea of
enterprise NFT, the Digital Covid Certificate presents a perfect case in this
sector, which is also a new solution to help the government gain ground in the
fight against COVID-19. VeChainThor provides a well-balanced infrastructure for
government, public and private sectors to work together to create a single,
standardized verification system."
The Blockchain Solution
The San Marino Digital Covid Certificate uses a public key for issuance and
validation, ensuring the integrity, authenticity and control of data contained
therein. The solution is derived from synergies created among San Marino
Innovation S.p.A, the joint DNV and VeChain team and the Secretariat of State
for Health of the Republic of San Marino.
According to the Ministry of Health and Social Security, the extremely
efficient development is owed fully to the multi-layered, fruitful
collaboration between San Marino's public entities and private partners DNV and
VeChain. The solution and technology behind it was presented in June to the WHO
at a European Committee meeting as well as the Russian RDIF fund.
