Proof of COVID-19 Vaccinations for Travel

Please do not call the practice to ask for proof of Covid-19 Vaccinations.

We do not supply letters for this purpose, patients can obtain evidence by using the NHS App or calling 119 directly.

You will however need our practice ODS code to link the NHS App to your medical records. Our ODS code is N81114.

You will need to evidence COVID-19 vaccinations before travelling to international destinations

Countries will decide whether they require proof of COVID-19 vaccination for entry, and it is the traveller’s responsibility to check individual requirements. If needed, people in England who have both vaccine doses will be able to demonstrate their COVID-19 vaccination status via the NHS App from 17 May 2021.

Patients who have noticed errors on their NHS app relating to their Covid-19 Vaccinations not appearing or incorrect information can now ring 119, option 3 and the data resolution (reactive) service will help. 

Those without access to the app can request a letter from the NHS proving their vaccination status by calling 119.
