Abstract

In January 2021, the Secretary of the World Tourism Organisation pointed to the implementation of health certification as a way to revive tourism. The aim of the study presented here is to analyse whether the acceptance of the health passport as a measure to revive travel ultimately improves the general population's intention to travel. A questionnaire was distributed and answered by 717 potential tourists. The data was analysed using PLS-SEM through the SmartPLS software. The results indicated that passport acceptance and credibility in preventive measures restricting the arrival of international tourists have a negative impact on intention to travel. In addition, a favourable attitude to travel has a negative effect on the acceptance of restrictions. This analysis contributes to the knowledge on the reactivation of international travel through health certification.
