I got my Swiss QR code FINALLY

After two attempts, I finally got my Swiss QR code. I did not get an email informing me of this, but it did just show up in the app. I believe I applied for the code through the Valais canton link. Did not have to send and email like the French one. So in my Swiss app I now have the French and Swiss QR codes. Glad to have these and I'm ready to go!

That’s great! We got Swiss code some time ago. How did you get the French one in the Swiss app?

BTW, I understand you only need one EU issued QR code and all the nations (including those that are not official EU members) honor the, within their particular guidelines. That is, I can use my Swiss code in Italy and France. Just checked that this morning.

I opened the Swiss app and scanned the French QR code and it accepted it. So now I have two French and one Swiss code(s).

How and where did you get your Swiss QR code? We travel to Zurich Sept 14 and do not have a code and can't find where to get them. Thanks

Is this texting you the QR code? Where do you put in a email?

Also which app do I need to download?
Thanks

No, the QR code will show up in the app once you are approved.
The app is call Swiss Covid Certificate and is mostly blue and white. You will need to generate a 9 digit code in the app then enter that 9 digit code in your application form.

I want to say it was about a week. I’m not sure if my notifications were turned off, but I opened the app and it was there.

If you have a QR code from an EU country, you can scan that into the Swiss app. Switzerland will accept an EU code.
