• Hawaii Safe Travels Program Will End on 03/25/2022

    March 16, 2022
    Aloha!
     
    The Hawaii Safe Travels program will end on 03/25/2022 at 11:59 p.m. HST. As a result, the Hawaii Safe Travels digital platform, found on travel.hawaii.gov, will no longer be available after 2:00 a.m. HST on 03/26/22.
     
    The Hawaii SMART Health Card application, which is found on the Hawaii Safe Travels website, will also shut down when the program ends. Holders of a Hawaii SMART Health Card who wish to keep a copy of their digital vaccine card for possible future use have these options:
    1. Save the QR code by printing it or saving a screenshot of it on their mobile device 
     
    2. Add it to their Apple Wallet. Instructions can be found here:
     
    3. Add to Samsung Pay or CommonHealth app.
     
    If saved, the QR code will still have the ability to show the verified information when scanned by the verifier app.
     
    All of the information stored in the Hawaii Safe Travels digital platform is subject to the State’s records retention schedule, which is 3 years after the end of the program. When the Safe Travels platform goes offline on March 26th, the existing data will be secured, encrypted and stored off-line in a safe manner. After 3 years, the data will be destroyed. We are planning to make a version of the information, with all personal information removed, available for research purposes in the future, for example, visitor trends during the pandemic.
     
    Mahalo for supporting the Hawaii SMART Health Card Program.
