Currently, there are no official COVID-19 vaccination “passports” required by the US government for travel. The Ocean County Health Department is not providing any type of special request letters or documents for travel or any other purpose other than the COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card provided to individuals at the time of vaccination. If you require proof of vaccination or never received/lost your COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card, you can request your immunization record by visiting the New Jersey Immunization Information System (NJIIS) page which can be found by clicking on the following link: https://njiis.nj.gov/core/web/index.html#/home | NJ DOCKET information
Once on this page, complete the following directions:
1. Click on “Submit a Request” from the top blue ribbon.
2. Click “I want to request a copy of my immunization record from NJIIS”, which will open a form that you need to complete. Note: You will need to attach a copy of your photo ID. Acceptable forms of ID include: a state-issued photo driver’s license with address; a state-issued photo non-driver’s identification card with address; a similar form of identification issued by this State, another state, or the Federal government; or a photo identification card issued by a New Jersey County Clerk.
3. If you wish to have a copy of the COVID-19 vaccine lot number, please write this in the description section of the ticket.
4. Click “Send” to submit your request, and your request will typically be processed within 24-48 business hours.
Note: All immunization records will be mailed. They cannot be emailed.
