Know Your Vaccination Status: Now Check Anyone's Vax Status On CoWIN App & Portal With OTP For Consent

The Union Health Ministry has activated a service on the CoWIN portal that allows anyone to check an individual's vaccination status with the person's registered mobile number and name, followed by an OTP for consent. The service could be utilised by a service provider - private entities such as travel agencies, offices, employers, entertainment agencies or government agencies such as IRCTC - for whom verifying a person's vaccination status is critical for facilitating a service requested by the citizen, an official said.
"Now download the fully / partially vaccinated badge from CoWIN (cowin.gov.in) & share it with your friends on all your social platforms! Encourage your family and friends to follow you and #FightCovid," National Health Authority CEO RS Sharma said in a tweet.
The service is being built to help citizens who may not have the vaccine certificate available in digital or paper form for availing a requested service and can support the service provider to verify the vaccination status/vaccination digital record of the citizen as per the authorised permission of the requesting entity.
The service helps in verifying the vaccination status of individuals. The service can be utilised by travel agencies and help making travel safe for individuals by allowing travel only for vaccinated individuals. Employers can use this service to verify vaccination status of employees and resume the functions in offices, workplaces, etc. This service will help in resuming and catalysing the economic activities in country, the official said.
