Make sure that they accept a photo and do not require the original.Glad I used my smartphone to take a picture of my CDC vax card. Now I always have a copy with me and I can store the original safely at home.
The posted rules do say a Digital Copy is OK.Make sure that they accept a photo and do not require the original.
It says digital copy is acceptedMake sure that they accept a photo and do not require the original.
The linked Amtrak Advisory has a link to the Key to NYC page, and that page says photos are acceptable. I would hope they wouldn't link to a page if they weren't abiding by it's requirements.Make sure that they accept a photo and do not require the original.
Plus I can pull up the details which is nice because the people who filled out my card had terrible handwriting.
Are you aware of any state or local app that works for residents outside the state or locality? Apparently California's app will only accept information about an injection in California.I know some states oppose them, but both NYC and NY State have easy to use digital passport systems.

Thanks. I investigated California because I expect to visit there, and I was disappointed that I couldn't use the California app for anything useful.But I'll look.
You don’t need to pay for the Clear Heath.Thanks, Betty. I didn't see any mention in the Condé Nast article of a state or local app that is useful for non-residents, nor a discussion of price (I understand that Clear is around $179, but I'd be happy to be mistaken), but it's certainly more information than I had before.

Problem is its data source is New York State records. Doesn't work for those vaccinated elsewhere.I know some states oppose them, but both NYC and NY State have easy to use digital passport systems. I have my vax data in the NYS pass, and whenever I test, I can add the same day pass for a rapid, and the 3 day pass for the PCR. The test passes go away as the dates pass, so far the vax is marked for one year. They can be printed out from a weblink if you don't have or carry a smartphone.
I received my shots at the VA and California did not have a record. They just asked me to upload a photo of the card and driver's license and I had the link to the state card in a few days. It is just a QR code and shot info at a web page. You have to take a snapshot of it and save that. It is not an app.Are you aware of any state or local app that works for residents outside the state or locality?

Well, I am coming to New York in November and the Excelsior Pass uses New York State data sources only. It has no access to to the Washington Department of Health Immunizations database where my vaccination records reside.As more and more places require it, particularly those that will see very large numbers of non locals, it will certainly be common. In NYC, Broadway shows are reopening, (some big ones tonight) and they will be loaded with non NY residents. MSG in season, sees tons of NJ residents for Rangers and Knicks.
