Digital COVID-19 passports for children aged 12 or over

Currently children aged 12-15 year old are blocked from accessing proof of covid 19 vaccination via the NHS.  Proof of vaccination is only available in paper form by parents applying online or via NHS 119 hotline.

From 3rd February a new digital COVID passport for 13-15 year old is being introduced to work the same way as the adult COVID passports, with children creating an NHS account via the NHS App or the NHS COVID Pass Service where they will find proof of vaccination and proof of prior infection.

How can I get a COVID-19 pass?

An NHS COVID Pass shows your coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccination details or test results. This is your COVID-19 status.

You may be asked to show your pass to travel abroad, or at events and venues in England asking for proof of your COVID-19 status.
