Access to the AM Expo is only possible for individuals with a valid COVID-19 certificate who have been vaccinated, tested or have recovered (What is the Covid-certificate?). They must present this certificate at the entry inspection point, together with a valid identity document. Individuals not in possession of a certificate can do an antigen rapid test on site. However, these testing capacities are limited. To ensure that waiting times are kept as short as possible, we recommend that you already take a test before the trade fair and travel to the event with a valid COVID-19 certificate.
