FAQs on registration
Can I get a vaccination without an appointment?
The government says that citizens aged 18-44 years should mandatorily register themselves and schedule appointments online before vaccination. On-spot registration or walk-in facility is currently not allowed at private hospitals for the 18-44 years age group.
Will I get an appointment after May 1?
From May 1, state governments and private hospitals will procure 50 percent of total doses directly from the open market to vaccinate the 18-44 year age group. The availability of slots will depend on the availability of doses. Due to limited doses, several states will have their own priority groups within the 18-44 years age group. This state-specific information will soon get reflected on the Co-win when you can make appointments.
Can I book my appointment for vaccination from April 28?
No. The link is open only for registration. The appointments or scheduling of vaccination will be available from May 1 onwards.
