The Digital COVID certificate is not a precondition for travel but can make travelling within the EU easier.

The Digital COVID Certificate is designed to support safe travel within the EU and other countries may be using the EU Digital COVID Certificate for domestic purposes, for example access to restaurants or cinemas.
