Department of Health(DOH)

February 28, 2022 Dear Rose Andrea G. Cereno, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated Feb 27, 2022 11:05:11 PM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch. Your Request You asked for I would like to request correction of my middle name in my vaccination record and certificate on vax. Response to Request Your FOI request is approved. VaxCertPH is the official digital vaccination certificate (DVC) for Filipinos and non-Filipinos vaccinated in the Philippines that may be used for international and domestic travel. It is free of charge, and complies with the WHO Digital Documentation of COVID-19 Certificates (DDCC) guidelines. Visit the VaxCertPH website at vaxcert.doh.gov.ph to generate your vaccination certificate. Please check the accuracy of your data based on your vaccination card (e.g. spelling of full name, correct dates, etc.) before submitting a request. VaxCertPH has been updated with new features! All citizens who generated their certificates before February 7, 2022 are urged to request the new version of VaxCertPH in the portal, since the QR code of previously generated certificates will become outdated and unreadable. Regenerate your VaxCertPH if you already have it, or get your VaxCertPH 48 hours after your full vaccination. VaxCertPH is currently in the soft launch phase, therefore vaccination records are still being uploaded by all LGUs to the VaxCert central database. Regarding your concern, the details of your vaccination record may have been incorrectly encoded in the vaccine information management system (VIMS) by your vaccination center. For concerns on no vaccination record, corrections or incomplete vaccination information in VaxCert, kindly coordinate with the LGU of City of Marikina where you received your vaccination and request for assistance to correct your vaccination record and certificate.
