I can confirm that the Australian Immunisation Register will be the record for all vaccinations for Australians, and that record will form the basis of the vaccination certificate that all Australians will be able to use, including visa holders. Your immunisation history statement, sourced from the Australian Immunisation Register, is available right now. You can access it from Express Plus Medicare or from myGov or call or visit Services Australia and get a paper record. Doctors, nurses, pharmacists and other health professionals will record vaccines given to you or your child on the Australian Immunisation Register. Once you've had the required doses of a COVID-19 vaccine, a COVID-19 immunisation status will show your immunisation history statement, and that can be used as your proof of vaccination.
