After scanning, a system at the Police Department of Administrative Management of Social Order under the Ministry of Public Security will automatically verify the information.

The system is expected to detect COVID-19 patients and people having direct contact with them, as well as those who have been fully vaccinated, in a bid to curb the spread of the pandemic.

People need to fill in their personal information at http://suckhoe.dancuquocgia.gov.vn or VNEID application before joining the traffic, and show the generated QR code at the checkpoints. The code will be valid for 72 hours.

Hanoi police detected 332 violation cases of COVID-19 prevention and control measures in the city in the past 24 hours to 11am on September 14.
