The vaccine card has arrived in BC. Also referred to as the vaccine passport, the card shows proof of vaccination and will be required starting on September 13 to access select events, services and businesses (excluding the Library and other essential services).
Key Dates
By September 13, you must have at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine to access places where the vaccine card is required for entry.
By October 24, you must be fully vaccinated. This requirement applies to people 12 years and up.
Accessing Your Vaccine Card
Access to obtain the vaccine card began on September 7. Before you get started, have your date of birth, Personal Health Number and date of your first or second vaccine dose ready.
If you don’t have your Personal Health Number, call 1-833-838-2323 for assistance. If you haven’t been vaccinated yet, go to Get Vaccinated to register.
