FAST Covid-19 TESTS AVAILABLE FOR BUSINESSES
Rapid antigen tests are an option for businesses in their response to COVID-19.
They’re not mandatory and won’t be suitable for everyone.
From 1 December, businesses who want to use rapid antigen testing at their workplaces will be able to buy them directly from authorised suppliers.
CHECKING CUSTOMERS PROOF OF VACCINATION
Businesses can choose whether to require customers to have My Vaccine Passes as a condition of entry.
For some businesses, this decision will affect the rules they must operate under.
If your business needs to check customers’ proof of vaccination status, you can use the free NZ Pass Verifier app.
