There are already six regions with judicial authorisation for the requirement of the vaccination document to access bars and restaurants.
The vaccination certificate is gradually gaining ground in Spain as one more tool to try to stop the growing wave of infections that is already being registered in the country, although without the virulence experienced in other European countries.
In the absence of a clear direction from the central government in Madrid with one ruling for all regions, it is the regions that want to implement the ‘Covid passport’ that have accelerated the process and are going to their regional courts of justice to seek their endorsement.
There are already six that have judicial authorisation for the implementation of the requirement of a vaccination document to allow access to certain places – mainly bars, restaurants and nightclubs. They are Galicia, Aragon, the Balearic Islands, Navarra and Catalonia, the latter also requesting this proof of vaccination in gyms and nursing homes. Murcia also asks for it but only for venues with a capacity of one hundred per cent.
