The Co-WIN portal has now introduced an option enabling users to link their vaccination certificates to their passport numbers. This move has come as a big relief to those Indians who need to furnish their vaccination details before travelling abroad.
“Now, you can update your passport number in your vaccination certificate,” the government said.The app also allows for a one-time name change to ensure that the name on the vaccine certificate and the passport is same. Earlier this month, the Centre had announced new guidelines for Covid-19 vaccination, stating that those travelling abroad for education, jobs, or as part of the Indian contingent for the Tokyo Olympic Games, will have to get their vaccination certificates linked to passports.
