Covid-19 information for our community
Thursday 13 January
Before coming on to any University of Auckland campus
Students, your My Vaccine Pass must be uploaded into the University's Vaccination Declaration Portal.
Staff and contractors refer to the University vaccination requirements (intranet).
Visitors must bring a digital or hard copy version of their My Vaccine Pass, and be ready to present it to University officials upon request at all times while on campus.
When on and moving about on any University of Auckland campus
You must keep track of where you go by continuing to use the Government’s NZ COVID Tracer app with Bluetooth turned on.
Face coverings and masks are strongly recommended by the Ministry of Education when indoors. Additionally, the University expects their use for teaching and learning, libraries and indoor student hubs, and in all common areas where distancing may be problematic, e.g. lifts and corridors. More about this in Masks and face coverings.
For more detailed information, refer to the Requirements for coming on to campus notice.
