Proof of Vaccination

The vaccine certificate issued by our partner clinic contains the same information as the one issued by the Japanese public authorities, and certifies that you have been vaccinated against the new coronavirus in Japan. In most of the countries listed above, a vaccine certificate issued by a private clinic is accepted. It takes only one day to issue the certificate, so it is recommended for those in a hurry.

This is a certificate of vaccination for international travel issued by our partner clinic. In many countries, you can use it as it is issued by an official medical institution. However, since it is not an official certificate issued by the Japanese government, it may not be accepted in Japan. Please click here for details.

FAQ

Which one should I apply for: official vaccination passport or proof of vaccination?

It all depends on your timeframe. Depending on where you live, your municipality might need on average 7 to 14 days to issue the certificate. If you need to leave soon, we recommend that you apply for a proof of vaccination.

Where can I apply for a vaccination passport?

You must apply to the municipality where you were registered as resident as of the date of inoculation. For example, if you were living in Tokyo Minato ward when you got vaccinated but later moved to another city, you need to apply at the Minato city hall.

What if I was vaccinated using vouchers from different municipalities?

In the case you used vouchers issued by different municipalities for your first and second inoculation, you will have to apply at each municipality for each dose.

What are the ways to apply for the vaccination passport?

It all depend on your municipality, but the most common accepted way is to apply by mail and include a pre-stamped return enveloppe. Some also accept application in-person or by Internet.

Can someone apply for the vaccination passport on my behalf?

Yes. However, you will have to fill out a Power of Attorney. A copy can usually be found on the official website of your city hall of residence. Your proxy will also have to provide documents to verify their identity.

How long does it takes to receive the vaccination passport?

It will depend on the city hall. Usually, count about 7 to 14 days after your documents were received

What informations are included on the vaccination passport?

The vaccination passport contains the name, date of birth, passport number and nationality. It also include other informations such as the type of vaccine, manufacturer, lot number, vaccination date, etc.

What if I am in the process of renewing my passport?

As the passport number on the certificate will be the same as the copy you provided, be sure to apply after your new passport is issued. Otherwise, your vaccination certificate may not be accepted by overseas authorities.
