Use this service to book a COVID-19 vaccination appointment for your:

You can book an appointment up to 7 days in advance.

Getting your third booster dose

You can get your third booster dose if you are:

• 12 or older with a weak immune system

Getting your second booster dose

You can book your second booster dose now if you are:

• age 50 to 64
• pregnant (from 16 weeks)
• a healthcare worker - bring your work ID or a letter as proof of employment
• 12 or older with a condition that puts you at high risk of serious illness from COVID-19 - for example, diabetes, asthma or heart disease

Getting your first booster dose

If you haven't already, you can book an appointment for your first booster if you are 12 years or older.

12 to 15 year olds must attend their booster appointment with a parent or legal guardian.

5 to 11 with a weak immune system

You will be contacted with an appointment for your child if they are age 5 to 11 with a weak immune system. You do not need to book an appointment.

If you need to reschedule, you can book a COVID-19 booster appointment for a different time.

Getting dose 1 or dose 2

To get your first round of COVID-19 vaccination, you must be age 5 or older.

To book a dose 2 appointment, wait at least:

• 21 days after your first dose of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine
• 28 days after your first dose of the Moderna vaccine

If you had COVID-19, wait at least 4 weeks since you tested positive or from when your symptoms started.

Booking for a child

There are separate vaccine clinics for:

• people aged 12 and older
• children aged 5 to 11

Book the correct clinic for your child’s age group. The vaccines offered are different for young children.

For people under 16, a parent or legal guardian must book their appointment and give consent for their vaccination. Children also need to attend their appointment with an adult.

If your child recently turned 12, they should attend a clinic for people age 12 and older. Do this even if they turned 12 after their first dose.
