The Ministry of Public Health (MOPH) released answers to frequently asked questions about the Gold Frame and Green Health Status on the Ehteraz app.
Q1. Are a Gold Frame and Green Health Status both needed to enter public buildings?
A Gold Frame is not required to enter public buildings including malls, company offices, and government facilities, or to go to work (some locations may require unvaccinated individuals to submit evidence of a negative COVID-19 rapid antigen test).However, a Green Health Status is required to enter indoor public places, in order to prove the individual does not currently have COVID-19 or is not under quarantine.

No. These individuals will not receive a Gold Frame. However, individuals who are recovered from COVID-19 in the last 9 months are eligible for the same privileges as vaccinated people under the current COVID-19 restrictions.To prove their recovered status, they can show the recovered date and icon on their Ehteraz application to relevant authorities.
Q3. What does a Green Health Status on Ehteraz represent?
The green status is displayed if the user does not currently have COVID-19 and is not under quarantine.
Q4. Is the Gold Frame given only to fully vaccinated individuals?
