Government sets up website to facilitate public to download electronic testing record
*************************************************************************************
With effect from 2.30pm on December 31, members of the public can download their electronic testing record after receiving negative test result SMS messages from the test services provided by the Department of Health, the Hospital Authority and community testing centres. They can simply input their Hong Kong identity card number and specimen bottle number to the System's website (www.evt.gov.hk) to download the record. The public can also access the System through the "COVID-19 Thematic Website" (www.coronavirus.gov.hk).
The Government will hold a briefing on the System in early January to institutions currently providing private testing services, with a view to also facilitating the public to download their electronic testing record through the System after conducting testing in private testing institutions.
The "Electronic Vaccination Record" will be added to the System at a later stage. By then, the public can download both their COVID-19 electronic testing record and vaccination record after verifying their identity through "iAM Smart".
