Government QR code FAQ
Do residents need an app to scan these?
No. Standard phone cameras open the linked page, so there's nothing for the public to install.
Can we update a linked form without replacing signs?
Yes. A dynamic code points to a destination you manage, so you can revise the form or page and the existing code keeps working.
Can one notice be offered in several languages?
Yes. You can link to a page that offers multiple language versions so residents choose the one they read.
Can we tell how often a service is accessed this way?
Yes. You get scan counts and times, which can help show where public information is being used.
Are these suitable for accessible communication?
The code should sit alongside a readable label and a page built for accessibility — plain language, screen-reader support and adjustable text.

Point residents to the right service
Create a government QR code and keep public information current without reprinting.
Plan around the customer journey
- Use PDF, Website, Business, Event for the jobs they are suited to.
- Give every printed code a named owner, destination and review date.
- Use different QR records for different locations or materials when reporting needs to stay clear.
- Keep the printed instruction specific: “View today’s menu” is stronger than “Scan me”.
- Test on the final surface, at the real distance and in the real lighting.
