Government is providing direction on updating NL VaxPass after you receive an additional dose of vaccine (e.g. booster dose).

Additional doses will not automatically display in NLVaxPass. You will need to delete your COVID-19 vaccination record from NLVaxPass and add a new one. For instructions on how to do this, please see page 10 of the NLVaxPass Quick Reference Guide (“Deleting a COVID-19 Vaccination Record”).

If your current COVID-19 vaccination record indicates a ‘Green Status’ in NLVaxPass, the status will remain green with or without the COVID-19 booster at this time.

Vaccination clinics may document your booster dose electronically or by using paper. To expedite the delivery of COVID-19 boosters, there has been an increase in the paper process, which may cause a delay in your booster displaying on your COVID-19 vaccination record.
