CLEAR Health Pass at AES 2021

The following steps will assist you in downloading the CLEAR Health Pass mobile app, setting up your account, and loading your verification information.

AES strongly recommends completing this process prior to arriving at McCormick Place West. If you do not complete this in advance, please allow a significant amount of extra time to check-in and receive your badge onsite.

International Attendees: The CLEAR Health Pass app is a North America-based application and can only be downloaded and configured upon arriving in the United States.

The CLEAR Health Pass app will validate attendees who have received the following COVID-19 vaccines:

• Pfizer
• Moderna
• Johnson & Johnson
• Astra-Zeneca (vaccine card mus thave the Smart QR code to scan)

If you have received one of the above vaccines, you should be able to use CLEAR Health Pass to verify your vaccine status. Please note that CLEAR Health Pass is a North America-based mobile app and can only be downloaded and configured once the user is in the United States or Canada.

If you have received a COVID-19 vaccine not listed above, please allow ample time for vaccine verification upon arriving at McCormick Place West. In addition to government-issued identification (e.g. your passport), you will need your vaccine card or a clear digital image of your card to be verified.

Setting Up Your Health Pass

1. Download the WHITE CLEAR Health Pass app (Apple App Store | Google Play Store).
   
2. Upon installing and opening the CLEAR Health Pass app for the first time, select the option to create a free CLEAR account. Follow the prompts to create your account. If you already have the CLEAR Health Pass App, skip to number 4.
3. To complete your enrollment, you will need to verify your identity with a US or Canada Photo ID or Passport. (AES 2021 attendees traveling to Chicago from outside the United States will need to wait to download the app until they have arrived in the US.)
4. Once your account is created and verified, navigate to the home screen of the app where you will find your pass. Select the option to enter a code, click 'Have a code?' and enter EFATTENDEE43. AES 2021 is not listed in the event list in the app. You must enter the code above to connect to AES 2021.
   
5. Next, review the 'Know this before you go' page to review the disclosure of what data is shared with Event Farm (EF)--the CLEAR Health Pass event partner that connects your verification in your app to your AES meeting registration. Please note the only information passed to Event Farm is your first and last name, Health Pass green or red status, and the time you completed your Health Pass. No other personal information is passed to Event Farm.
   
6. Your last step is to add your COVID-19 vaccination details via card scan, Apple Health integration, or by syncing with pharmacy and healthcare provider records.
7. Once the above steps have been successfully completed, your device will display a green screen featuring  your photo and a QR code. This is the code that will be scanned upon your arrival at registration to allow you to proceed to pick up your badge and meeting materials.
