No valid proof of vaccination

If you have given permission for your details to be shared with the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM), go to mijn.rivm.nl/vaccinaties to see how your details have been registered. It is important that you check that your name and date of birth are correct. Your name must be the same as the name given in your passport or on your ID card. This includes special characters, such as ç.

If the details shown are not correct, contact the organisation that vaccinated you and ask it to update them. If you were vaccinated by the municipal health service (GGD), you can call 0800 5090 to do this. The helpdesk can see if anything has gone wrong and update your data where needed.

You are not required to register your vaccination with RIVM. GGD vaccinations will automatically be registered if you gave permission.

Having your vaccination registered with RIVM at a later stage

If your vaccination has not yet been registered with RIVM you can still arrange this. Contact the organisation that vaccinated you.

To generate proof of vaccination, vaccination details are retrieved not only from RIVM but also from the GGD.

Vaccination by your family doctor (GP), hospital or care home

If you were vaccinated by a care provider other than the GGD, for example your family doctor (GP), they can create proof of vaccination for you. Check the care provider’s website or send them an email. You should not contact an out-of-hours GP service (for evenings and weekends) to arrange this.

Having your vaccination registered with RIVM at a later stage

If your vaccination has not yet been registered with RIVM you can still arrange this. Contact the organisation that vaccinated you.

You will not receive proof of vaccination if your second vaccination appointment is still registered in the system. For instance, if you did not go to the appointment and did not cancel the appointment. You can check this yourself:

• Go to planjeprik.nl.
• Log in with your DigiD.
• Click ‘View my vaccination appointments’. If your second appointment is still in the system, your status is ‘primary series not completed’. Contact the GGD on 0800 7070 to make a new second appointment or go to a vaccination centre where you can get vaccinated without making an appointment (see prikkenzonderafspraak.nl).

If you had coronavirus before you had your first dose, you only need one dose. Tell the GGD and cancel your second appointment. 

If this applies to you, you have not completed the primary series. Get your second dose with or without an appointment via prikkenzonderafspraak.nl.

If you became infected with coronavirus after receiving your first vaccine dose, you will still need to receive your second dose to complete your primary series. Only then can you generate proof of vaccination in the CoronaCheck app or on CoronaCheck.nl.
