The topic of the need and usefulness of preventive vaccinations has already been raised many times. Beginning in the maternity hospital, they are designed to protect the child, and then the adult, from dangerous and fatal diseases. In most cases, lifelong immunity is achieved with the help of vaccine prophylaxis.
Of course, a vaccination will not completely protect a person from the possibility of disease. But if the microbe enters the human body, the immune system, which already “knows” this infection, will actively fight it. This significantly facilitates the course of the disease, making it non-life-threatening.
Vaccinations administered to a person are recorded in two established forms of basic medical records. This is a vaccination card - form 063/u and a vaccination certificate - form 156/u-93. Both documents, when completed correctly, have equal force and significance.
I lost my vaccination certificate, what should I do?
Victoria, any document issued in person can be restored... After all, it cannot be that all vaccinations are not reflected in another stationary card... Any document issued on the basis of any other documents, samples, charts... When you received the vaccine, you probably signed that you received it... Doctors need this signature to write off vaccines. There is a certain journal where all the vaccinations you have received are reflected... Initially, your copy was not given to you out of thin air... why was it issued? They just don’t want to search... it’s easier for them to send you... maybe they are waiting for money... Advice: go to the manager with a statement. . . First, explain the situation, that they say you need to restore... if you feel that she doubts your persistence, hand her a statement with a written request to issue you this document. . Make the application in two copies... let the head of the department accept the application and sign on the second one and put the date of acceptance and last name. After this statement, he has no right to play football with you. Please keep in mind that they do not have the right to refuse to accept an application... If this doesn’t help and the process is slowed down, then you can go higher with a copy of your copy...
Human vaccination history
The newborn, without contraindications, receives vaccinations against hepatitis B and tuberculosis; this information is first recorded in the medical record. Upon discharge from the maternity hospital, information about vaccination is transferred to the district clinic. Until the child crosses the threshold of a preschool institution, vaccinations are given at the clinic at the place of residence, and the information is entered into the card.
When a child comes to kindergarten, he receives a preschool medical registration card (form 030/у), where information about the vaccination received is entered. They include the date of vaccination, type of vaccine, number, etc. The records are certified by the signature and seal of the relevant specialist. Having a card does not require special statements with vaccination information, which are requested in various educational institutions.
To resolve further questions related to vaccinations, new parents should contact the maternity hospital or children's hospital, where they will issue a certificate of vaccinations. From the school, information about vaccinations done at the educational institution is transferred to the clinic. Information about vaccinations is then, as they grow older, transferred to the card for the antenatal clinic and the district military registration and enlistment office.
How can it be restored?
Vaccinations for any person begin in the maternity hospital. The record of the first vaccinations given also begins there. They are recorded on special vaccination cards. When the child is discharged from the maternity hospital, all documents are given to the mother. There is also a duplicate about the baby’s first vaccinations.
If this document is lost, do not panic. It can be restored without monetary costs or other penalties. You need to go to the clinic at your place of registration or the one to which you are registered. Notify the registry that the vaccination certificate has been lost.
Having received a new document, you need to do some more work with it. Find out how to formalize it further and contact the necessary specialists to affix the necessary stamps on a new document in this medical institution.
What is a vaccination certificate
The document looks like a book, it contains nine A5 pages containing information about the vaccination performed and how the patient reacted. The certificate of preventive vaccinations has the following pages:
- Page with the patient's personal data. Last name, first name, patronymic, year of birth, address and telephone numbers. There is a highlighted column where: an excerpt from GOST about vaccinations, information about the blood group and Rh factor, data on the certification of medical institutions where vaccination was done.
- 2-3 pages. Highlighted for tables with information about the state of human health at the time of vaccination, the presence of individual contraindications and reactions to vaccinations. Mantoux reactions are noted here. Records of vaccinations against tuberculosis and polio are made on these pages. The data is entered by a medical professional and certified with a hospital seal.
- 4-5 pages. Provide information about vaccinations against whooping cough, tetanus and diphtheria. The second half of the spread is intended for a table with optional vaccinations: vaccinations against parvovirus, influenza and other infections.
- 6 sheets. Contains records of endemic vaccinations carried out in a certain area, taking into account its specifics, vaccination against mumps.
- 8 page. There is information about the presence of certain antibodies in the human body, individual intolerances and contraindications, as well as the consequences of previous vaccinations.
- 9 page. Keeps vaccination records against measles, rubella, mumps, hepatitis A and B and cases of infection with dangerous pneumococcal fungi.
Filling out the book is done by a doctor or nurse in the treatment room at the district clinic. The following information about the vaccine is entered:
- Its name;
- ampoule number;
- volume of drug administered;
- proportions of the drug if the vaccine is to be dissolved.
All information about vaccination is certified by the doctor’s signature and the personal seal of the head physician. In their absence, the data is not considered reliable. No corrections or erasures are permitted in the records. A certificate of preventive vaccinations is included in a person’s official documents, along with a passport and work book. It remains with the patient. If you need to provide a certificate for storage, you must make a photocopy certified by a notary.
Why is it necessary?
The vaccination passport contains information about all diseases vaccinated to a person and individual characteristics of immunity. Presentation of a document may be required if:
- registering a child for kindergarten, summer camp, school;
- admission to a secondary vocational educational institution or university;
- enrollment in the ranks of the armed forces of the Russian Federation;
- applying for a job related to catering, food, increased workload or harmfulness;
- desire to visit New Zealand, South America, Africa (travel abroad).
- hospitalization.
The trend in recent years has been to increase the number of government agencies requiring a certificate. Now a child will not be able to enter kindergarten or school without such a document. The requirements for its presence are intended, among other things, to increase people’s attentiveness to the prevention of various diseases. The certificate has form 156/у – 93. The forms are sold by kiosks with printed materials. You can obtain a passport at any medical institution certified to administer vaccinations.
How to restore a vaccination certificate
The document contains information about vaccinations that were given before the age of 18. If the certificate is lost, then you need to contact a children's clinic or institution where there is an archive where information about vaccinations is stored. To facilitate the process of restoring the vaccination passport, it must be duplicated after the first receipt; the copy is certified by a notary, by the personnel service at the place of work or by the medical institution that issues the certificate.
When contacting a children's clinic, you should have a blank form that you can buy or even print out yourself. Information about vaccinations will be copied by the doctor of the children's clinic from the medical record, after which you should return to the adult hospital, where the doctor will mark it. The final touch is certification of the certificate by the head physician of the medical institution. Passport restoration takes 2 days. In the absence of information, the need for re-vaccination arises.
The main problems when restoring a vaccination certificate
The first thing you need to know is that when visiting a medical facility you will have to wait in line. You also need to remember whether all the information about the person is available in this clinic. So, if there were frequent moves, then not all information may be in one place. Something could have remained in the previous clinic. Then you'll have to wait even longer. They do not hand over all the documents from the clinic. Only after collecting all the information will it be possible to receive vaccinations.
Another option for restoring a certificate is a private clinic. Not everything is simple here either. The doctor will need to contact the local clinic in any case. And of course, a private clinic does not work for free.

Unexpected obstacle
Having contacted your former children's clinic with a request to draw up a document, you may be faced with the problem of the lack of the form itself for such a service. This obstacle can be easily overcome if you purchase it in advance at the nearest medical center or print out a vaccination certificate, a sample of which is presented in the article below. Anyone who wants to will just have to enter their data into it.
How to obtain a vaccination certificate
From birth, the child begins to receive preventive vaccinations, in accordance with the National Calendar approved by regulations. Thanks to vaccination, immunity is developed against such dangerous diseases as polio, hepatitis B, rubella, whooping cough, tuberculosis and others. In some cases, a certificate of vaccination is required, which confirms that the child has completed all stages of the immunization regulated by the National Calendar. If vaccination cannot be carried out due to absolute or relative contraindications, a certificate is issued indicating a medical exemption from vaccinations for a certain or unlimited period.
What is an immunization record?
Vaccination is the most effective method of preventing many infectious diseases, accepted throughout the world. Some vaccinations are considered mandatory, others are recommended. No one has the right to force them to do it, but an unvaccinated person may have problems getting a job at school or work, while traveling, or if they intend to undergo treatment in a sanatorium.
In the Russian Federation, vaccination against viral hepatitis B, influenza, diphtheria, whooping cough, measles, rubella, pneumococcal infection, polio, tetanus, tuberculosis, and mumps is mandatory. According to epidemic indications, vaccinations are given against rabies, brucellosis, typhoid fever, chickenpox, viral hepatitis A, Haemophilus influenzae infection, yellow fever, tick-borne viral encephalitis, leptospirosis, Q fever, meningococcal infection, rotavirus infection, anthrax, tularemia, cholera, plague, shigellosis.
The introduction of vaccines against dangerous diseases is carried out in several stages. In the first year, the child receives basic vaccinations that form the foundation of immunity - against hepatitis B, tuberculosis, pneumococcal infection, whooping cough, diphtheria, tetanus, spinal paralysis, measles, rubella, mumps. Then, according to the schedule, repeated injections are performed to form a primary immune response and revaccination. All vaccine activities must be documented - indicating the name of the vaccine and the date of administration of the drug. This information is recorded in documents:
Vaccination certificate - a certificate with detailed information about vaccinations: which and when the child was given. In essence, this is an extract from the vaccination card, provided at the place of request.
The document looks like this: at the top left is the inscription “Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation”, in the right corner is the OKUD and OKPO code of the medical authority that issued the certificate. In the central part is the title of the document. Next, it is indicated for which institution the certificate is issued, as well as the date. Below, the patient’s personal data is entered, and there is a table listing all vaccinations, dosages, dates, series of vaccines, as well as a description of reactions to the administration of drugs.

We urgently need to stop
This problem is really very serious. As the chairman of the all-Russian movement “Strong Russia”, human rights activist Anton Tsvetkov , said, regional demands for mandatory vaccination will lead to massive purchases of certificates of vaccinations, and this must be stopped immediately.
— I’ll immediately note that I personally am in favor of mandatory vaccination, and I myself was vaccinated with Sputnik. But at the same time, I already know several people who have bought vaccination certificates, completed and issued completely through the entire official system. The Ministry of Health and law enforcement agencies must stop pretending that this does not exist, join forces and put an end to this chaos within a few days at most,” the social activist noted.
In his opinion, both sellers and buyers of such certificates should be held criminally liable, because they endanger the lives of people and the safety of society as a whole. In addition, the ridiculous price for the certificate and the ease of obtaining it indicate that no one is fighting this.
They will get sick and infect others.
The black market for certificates is dangerous because it creates a threat to the lives of both the person himself and those around him, says immunologist Vladimir Bolibok.

Purpose of the vaccination sheet
As a rule, a certificate of vaccinations in form 063/u is required when a child enters a preschool or educational institution. In addition, this document may be required in the following cases:
- when making an entry in the work book;
- when conscripted for military service or contract service in the armed forces;
- during hospitalization, including emergency;
- when making a referral to a sanatorium, dispensary, boarding house, children's camp;
- when applying for admission to sports competitions;
- upon confirmation of the fact that the patient is not registered at the tuberculosis dispensary. In this case, they may require a certificate, which also includes Mantoux tests;
- when traveling abroad.
If a child gets a part-time job during school holidays, a certificate of vaccinations given to him may be required for vacancies in the field of catering, services, as well as in medical institutions.
The demand for an extract is related to the confirming power of the document that the child is vaccinated and cannot be a potential carrier of dangerous diseases.
How to make a document
Many, wanting to avoid long lines at budgetary medical institutions, turn to commercial medical centers, where they issue a certificate of form 063/u. However, this is illegal, since employees of a private medical institution cannot know for certain which vaccinations were given to the patient and which were not. In this regard, you should only contact your doctor – local pediatrician or therapist – to obtain the document.
For kindergarten and school
All documents reflecting completed vaccinations are stored in the clinic to which the patient is assigned. Duplicates are located in institutions where information on immunization was previously submitted, as well as at home, but not every person keeps them, which forces them to contact the appropriate authority to obtain a certificate for a specific situation.
A document confirming immunization can be obtained from the local pediatrician at the clinic where the child is being treated. A registration card is stored here, from which the pediatrician will make an appropriate extract.
As for obtaining a medical certificate for school, this can be done in two ways:
- contact the preschool institution where previously provided extracts are stored;
- visit the local pediatrician at the clinic and reissue the certificate.
You can choose the most convenient method. As a rule, parents prefer to take a transcript from kindergarten. It is believed that this method is faster than visiting clinics, where long queues accumulate.
For work
An adult must go to a clinic or institution where the vaccination card has already been submitted. Some people make a copy of the document and keep it at home; a duplicate can also be provided. However, in this case it is required to certify it with the seal of a medical institution and the signature of a doctor. Holders of a vaccination certificate can present it.
Where can I get an international document?
The international type of certificate differs in that it must contain information about vaccinations that are specific to the epidemic situation in a particular country. Most often, a document is required to visit some countries in America, all of Africa and parts of Asia.
You can obtain a vaccination certificate in medical institutions that are licensed to carry out this type of activity, as well as in private centers.
What difficulties do you encounter during registration?
The main obstacle that a patient may encounter when obtaining a vaccination certificate is that the medical center does not have blank forms. There are several ways to solve the problem:
- print a sample by finding it on the Internet;
- visit a kiosk where they sell printed products. The price of the form is approximately 35-40 rubles.
Thus, the problem that has arisen can be easily solved.
General requirements for form 156/у-93
On the very first page there is an excerpt from the “Rules for filling out the certificate”. Following them, the medical professional will make a reliable copy of the person’s vaccination history. The certificate itself has the same legal force as a vaccination card that is stored in a medical institution. Based on the certificate, other permits or certificates may be issued. But despite the individual name that the vaccination certificate has, the owner’s photo is not pasted into it.
Validity period of the certificate
Each clinic has a special file cabinet where patients’ vaccination cards are stored in accordance with the months of subsequent immunization. This sorting of cards by dates of preventive vaccination allows for scheduled vaccinations to be carried out in a timely manner.
Each document on immunization activities carried out is stored for 5 years. As for the vaccination statement itself, it is valid for exactly the period of time that antibodies to a specific disease remain in the human body. So, for example, if a preventive serum against influenza was administered, the certificate is valid for 12 months.
What to do if the certificate is irretrievably lost or damaged
Often, when cleaning the house, a person accidentally throws away a vaccination certificate or stains a document by spilling tea or coffee on it. It is possible to restore the extract, so do not panic if the certificate form 063/y was damaged or lost.
The patient can go to the medical institution to which he is assigned. The clinic stores all data regarding preventive vaccination for each patient. The local pediatrician or therapist, depending on the person’s age, will transfer the data to a new document.
Due to the fact that the patient is not always able to visit the medical institution to which he is attached (for example, if he is temporarily studying, living or working in another city), it is recommended to prepare for the situation in advance so that a medical certificate of vaccinations can be quickly restored. To do this, you need to make a copy of the issued document as soon as it is received and have the duplicate certified by a notary.
Another option is to issue a vaccination certificate in form 156/u-93. This is a document that also contains complete information about the vaccinations performed. It is filled out only by medical workers, each entry is certified by a doctor and the seal of the medical institution. Both the vaccination card and the vaccination certificate are equally valid, but if the first one is stored in the clinic’s file cabinet, then the patient has the certificate. You can obtain the document from your local pediatrician or therapist.
A vaccination certificate is an important medical document that is necessary to attend a kindergarten or school, apply for a trip to a sanatorium, when applying for a job, and in many other situations. You can obtain a certificate of form 063/u from your local physician if we are talking about an adult, or from a pediatrician if the patient is a child. It is recommended that as soon as the extract has been received, you make a copy of it, so that if the original is lost or damaged, it will be easier to restore the certificate.
Information on vaccinations for adults
Despite the fact that a certificate of professional vaccination is a fairly young phenomenon, many adults also have it. First of all, this is due to human labor activity. Quite a lot of specialties require a certain state of health of the employee, immunity to dangerous infections.
Registration of a medical record, a mandatory document in the list of documents provided for employment in industries with restrictions on existing immunity, will not present any difficulties if such a certificate is available. Having once completed the document and knowing where the vaccination certificate is stored, any adult can no longer worry about issues of employment, issuing health resort cards, certificates for playing sports and other permitting documents. But the main thing is that the presence of a correctly executed certificate is a guarantee that vaccination has been carried out, and there will be no re-administration of vaccinations already given.
