EUROPEAN DIGITAL PASSENGER LOCATOR FORM (dPLF)

Welcome to the web-based application for the European Digital Passenger Locator Form (dPLF).
The European Digital Passenger Locator Form (dPLF)

Passenger Locator Forms (PLFs) are used by public health authorities to facilitate contact tracing in case travellers are exposed to an infectious disease during their travel by plane, ship (cruise/ferry), rail, bus or automobile. Information that travellers provide in PLFs can be used by public health authorities in destination countries to rapidly contact travellers, with the goal of protecting the health of travellers’ and their contacts, as well as preventing further disease spread.

Countries that require completion of PLF are currently using paper-based passenger locator forms or have developed national online systems. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, a web application for a European Digital Passenger Locator Form (dPLF) was developed to facilitate the use of PLFs during cross-border health threats. This digital format will allow for easier and more rapid data collection and exchange between stakeholders, making contact tracing more effective and efficient.

In the future, travelers entering a country that choose to use the European dPLF web application through air, maritime (cruise or ferry), or land (train, bus, car) transport means may be asked to complete a digital Passenger Locator Form for their travel using the European dPLF web application.

Who has to complete the digital Passenger Locator Form?

In case a family is traveling together, only one member of the family will have to complete the PLF. The details of the rest of the family members should then be included in this PLF. The same applies to groups travelling together. Only one person from the group should complete the PLF and the details of the rest of the group members should then be included in this PLF. Note that this applies only to families and groups of people that will take part in the same activities and stay at the same place during their visit to the destination country.

Processing of personal data

Before you fill in your PLF, you will be asked to read the Destination’s Country Privacy Policy for you to be informed about the collection and processing of your personal data for the purposes related to the European dPLF.
