New York City has begun enforcement of Key to NYC, a program that requires people to prove they have received at least one dose of the vaccine for COVID-19 in order to enter restaurants, event spaces, hotel banquet rooms, fitness centers, movie theaters and other indoor locations.

For proof of vaccination, you can use one of the following:

  • CDC Vaccination Card. A photo or photocopy of this card is also acceptable.
  • NYC Vaccination Record or another official immunization record from within or outside the U.S., including from your health care provider. A photo or photocopy of this card is also acceptable. If you are unable to get this record, call 311.
  • NYC COVID Safe App: Android | iOS. You can upload to this app a photo of your CDC vaccination card or another official record, along with your photo ID.
  • Excelsior Pass (or Excelsior Pass Plus). To use this app, you will need the phone number or email address associated with your NYC vaccination record. If you are unable to use this app, try one of the other options listed above.
