They can register for a COVID-19 check-in card and present it to supermarkets and other essential retail businesses to scan as a faster and safer way to complete the self-service webform check-in or paper sign-in.
Minister for Digital and Customer Service Victor Dominello said it was being introduced to make the COVID-Safe check-in as safe and accessible as possible.
"The days of seeking out somewhere to manually sign in with pen and paper should be an absolute last resort," he said.
Customers can download and print their COVID-19 check-in card or have a plastic card mailed to them.
Their contact details will be securely stored within the QR code, which will prepopulate the webform when scanned by the business.
Customers will be able to register for their COVID-19 check-in card via the Service NSW website or by calling 13 77 88 from August 13 and can opt to receive it via email to print at home, or via postal mail.
