Isn’t Oz making a vaccine passport of some kind?
No.
Some noise from federal govt (and NSW) about this but resistance from the other states. If the states do not agree nothing will happen
The vaccination roll out will
not be completed this calendar year
Edit
Not a vaccine passport, but maybe something for AU citizens/permanent residents.
Would need state agreement, as hotel quarantine is mandated by State Govt (Heath regs). If it happens good chance only NSW will be doing this.

Government to trial overseas travel for vaccinated Australians

Travel trial for fully-vax'd Australians
The Government is also considering a pilot program which would let fully-vaccinated Australians travel overseas from August.
The scheme could allow them to fly to selected countries, including low-risk destinations, and return without facing quarantine provided they show a negative COVID result on arrival.
It's suggested that the trial could be rolled out alongside the introduction of an 'amber' grading for less risky countries, which would sit between the current 'green' category which for now applies only to New Zealand, and 'red', which today is basically the rest of the world.
