Check C19 – Here’s the app to read green passes and avoid counterfeits – how it works

Faced with the risk of false Green Passes (also sold on social networks) Palazzo Chigi, from its twitter account relaunches the application created ad hoc to verify the certification of the certificate. “Green certification: how to easily recognize the authentic one”, is the Prime Minister’s tweet that, in a short infographic, explains how the application works. It’s called “c19 Verification”, it works by scanning the Green Pass QR Code, and it’s free.

With the obligation of the green pass for some activities, controls will also come. As of August 6, the green passport, which is obtained once you have a vaccination certificate (issued 15 days after the first dose and valid until the second or after the second dose and valid for 9 months), with the certificate of cure (valid for 6 months) and with the negative result of a tampon made in the previous 48 hours – it will be necessary for indoor restaurants, outdoor shows, spas, swimming pools, gyms, fairs, congresses and competitions, bars but not to consume over the counter, even if it is indoors.

Therefore, checks will be necessary to verify the validity and authenticity of the green certificates that citizens will be able to present both on paper and in digital version. The verifications will be carried out through the VerificationC19 application, developed by the Ministry of Health through SOGEI.

Green pass, how the C19 Verification application works

The VerificationC19 application can only be used by “verifiers”, or those in charge of controlling COVID-19 green certifications: those who provide services for which certification is required, organizers of events and activities to participate in those who have the same certification and Public officials are required in the exercise of their functions.

The process of using the verification application is divided, in particular, into the following phases: the verifier requests the certification from the interested party, who displays the corresponding QR Code (in digital or paper format). The application reads the QR code, extracts the information and proceeds with the authenticity verification by verifying the digital signature and then graphically shows the verifier the real authenticity and validity of the certification, as well as the name, surname and date of birth of the ‘holder and its unique identifier. The owner, at the request of the verifier, exhibits a valid identity document in order to verify the correspondence of the personal data present in the document with those shown by the application. The app will not store all the sensitive data contained in the green pass regarding privacy.

Instructions for operators

The COVID-19 Green Certification verification process involves the use of the VerificationC19 national verification application, installed on a mobile device. This application allows you to verify the authenticity and validity of certifications without the need for an Internet connection (offline) and without storing personal information on the verifier’s device.

The VerificationC19 application complies with the European version, but reduces the amount of data that the operator can see to minimize the information processed.

How the verification is carried out

    1. 1 – The Certification is requested by the verifier to the interested party who shows the corresponding QR Code (in digital or paper format).
      2 – The Verification C19 application reads the QR code, extracts the information from it and proceeds to verify the qualified electronic seal.
      3 – The Verification C19 application applies the rules to verify that the Certification is valid.
      4 – The C19 Verification App graphically shows the verifier the effective validity of the Certification as well as the name, surname and date of birth of the holder.

The interested party, at the request of the verifier, exhibits a valid identity document in order to verify the correspondence of the personal data present in the document with those shown by the App.

Who are the operators that can verify the Certification

    • * Public officials in the exercise of their functions.
    • * The personnel assigned to control entertainment services and entertainment activities in places open to the public or in public establishments registered on the list referred to in article 3, paragraph 8, of Act No. 94.
      * The owners of accommodation facilities and public establishments for which the possession of the COVID-19 green certification is required, as well as their delegates.
