Province launches new website to access COVID-19 vaccination record

Sep 19, 2021 | 3:44 PM

LETHBRIDGE, AB – Albertans can now access their card-sized proof of COVID-19 vaccination with a “new, easy access” web service.

It can be accessed online at alberta.ca/CovidRecords without creating an online account. The province says Albertans should have immediate access with no or minimal online wait time.

Any Albertan who received their COVID-19 immunization, including children aged 12 and older, will be able to print the card or save it by entering their:

• Month and year of vaccination of any dose
• Alberta Personal Health Number
• Date of birth

The COVIDRecords website does not require signing up for My Alberta Digital ID or MyHealth Records. The province stated that this will make it easier for Albertans to provide proof of vaccination to businesses checking patrons for government-issued proof of vaccination under the Restrictions Exemption Program.

Minister of Health Tyler Shandro said, “we are making it simpler, faster and more accessible for all Albertans to get the printable card-sized COVID-19 vaccination record ahead of the proof of vaccination requirements coming into effect on Sept. 20. This innovative solution will help vaccinated Albertans access services and businesses across the province.”

“If you didn’t get your vaccination, appointments are available across Alberta, so book yours today.”
