Get the Right Texas Vaccine Record Without Using the Wrong Form
Texas does not give every resident a public ImmTrac2 account for an instant lifetime-record download. An official registry copy uses a record-release process, while different consent forms control whether child or adult information can be stored in the registry.
This guide separates those tasks and shows how to request a record, protect childhood history after age 18, recover missing pharmacy or provider doses, prepare school proof, and handle a record-not-found result.

How do you get vaccine records in Texas?
For an official available ImmTrac2 immunization history, use the Texas DSHS Authorization to Release Official Immunization History, stock number F11-11406.
For a faster practical copy, also contact the doctor, clinic, pharmacy, school, college, local health department, employer health office or military medical office that already has your vaccine dates.
Which Texas ImmTrac2 form do you actually need?
Use this to authorize Texas DSHS to release an available official ImmTrac2 history for the adult client or for a child when the requester has the appropriate legal relationship.
Use the official withdrawal process when a person wants ImmTrac2 consent withdrawn. Do not use C-8 merely because you need a copy of the record.
Can a regular Texas resident log into ImmTrac2?
ImmTrac2’s direct portal is designed for authorized organizations and approved users. The official portal itself warns users not to attempt to log in unless they are authorized.
- Use F11-11406 for an official registry release.
- Ask the healthcare provider for its clinical vaccine history.
- Ask the pharmacy for doses administered there.
- Ask the school or college for a record already on file.
- Contact a local health department for record help.
- Use your organization’s ImmTrac2 access process.
- Work through the organization’s Point of Contact when required.
- Do not share user credentials.
- Use client information only for an authorized purpose.

What can DSHS return after searching ImmTrac2?
| Result | What it means | What to do next |
|---|---|---|
| Record Released | A matching ImmTrac2 record was located and an available immunization history was released. | Compare the returned doses with provider, pharmacy and personal records for completeness. |
| Record Not Found | A matching ImmTrac2 client record was not located using the search information. | Check consent history, former names, DOB accuracy, providers, schools and other states. |

Texas F11-13366 Adult Consent Form explained
Adult consent determines whether an adult participates in ImmTrac2 and whether the registry can retain and make the adult’s information available to authorized persons or entities under Texas rules.
The February 2026 form asks for
Why ages 18 and 26 matter for childhood ImmTrac2 records
| Stage | What happens | Practical action |
|---|---|---|
| Before age 18 | A participating child’s registry consent is controlled through the applicable parent/guardian process. | Keep a permanent family copy instead of depending only on the registry. |
| At age 18 | A person registered as a child must provide adult consent to continue participation. | Review F11-13366 promptly. |
| Ages 18–25 | DSHS holds the childhood record until the participant turns 26 while adult consent can still be completed. | Address consent before the 26th birthday if continued retention is desired. |
| Age 26 without adult consent | DSHS states that the childhood immunization records are deleted. | Reconstruct records from original providers, pharmacies, schools, colleges, military systems and other states. |
How to get a child’s Texas immunization record
Request the complete clinical immunization history and ask whether the child is registered in ImmTrac2.
A school may already hold a validated immunization record submitted during an earlier registration.
A parent, legal guardian or managing conservator can authorize release of an available registry history when that relationship applies.
C-7 Minor Consent
C-7 is the current bilingual ImmTrac2 form used by a parent, legal guardian or managing conservator to grant registration consent for a client younger than 18.
Other ImmTrac2 forms you may see
| Form | Purpose | Do not use it for |
|---|---|---|
| F11-11936 | Newborn Registration Form. | Requesting delivery of an existing record. |
| C-8 | Withdrawal of Consent and Confirmation. | Correcting a missing vaccine or ordering a record copy. |

Why your Texas vaccine record may be missing or incomplete
How to correct a Texas immunization record
Start with the provider or pharmacy that administered the vaccine. The current release form also states that individuals have the right to ask the state agency to correct information determined to be incorrect.
| Detail | Best source | Why it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Vaccine name | Provider or pharmacy administration history. | Identifies the exact clinical event. |
| Administration date | Medical chart, vaccine card, portal or receipt. | Helps locate the original encounter. |
| Administering location | Clinic, pharmacy, hospital or vaccine event. | Identifies the organization responsible for verification. |
| Manufacturer / lot when available | Clinical administration record. | Provides additional verification. |
| Identity used at the visit | Patient portal, insurance record or appointment confirmation. | Can reveal a demographic mismatch or duplicate record. |
What Texas schools can use as acceptable vaccine-record evidence
Texas DSHS’s record-review guidance describes four broad record sources. The validating information matters as much as the source.
| Record type | What should appear | What to do if incomplete |
|---|---|---|
| Previous-school record | Student vaccine history with month, day and year of administered vaccines. | Ask the former school for the complete version or direct transfer. |
| State or local health-authority record | Official record generated by the health authority. | Provide the complete official output rather than rewriting dates manually. |
| Electronic health record | Student name, vaccines, complete dates, clinic information and provider signature or stamp. | Ask the provider for a complete validated export. |
| Non-EHR provider record | Student name, vaccines, complete dates and provider validation such as initials, stamp or signature. | Ask the provider to validate an incomplete paper record. |
2026–27 K–12 requirement categories
The current Texas chart covers DTaP/DTP/DT or Tdap/Td, polio, MMR, hepatitis B, varicella, meningococcal conjugate vaccine and hepatitis A, with dose and timing rules varying by grade and prior dose timing.
The current chart includes childhood-series requirements and timing rules tied to birthdays and dose dates.
The chart includes grade-specific Tdap/Td and meningococcal requirements in addition to the continuing vaccine-series rules.
Tetanus-containing booster timing differs from seventh grade, while other listed state requirements continue as applicable.
When can provisional enrollment matter?
Texas provisional enrollment is a specific state-rule pathway, not a general grace period for every student with incomplete paperwork.
Texas exemption paperwork changed in September 2025
Beginning September 1, 2025, Texas DSHS began allowing blank reasons-of-conscience exemption affidavits to be downloaded from its website. The older request-by-mail option still exists.
Use the official DSHS exemption page and follow the current completion instructions.
DSHS also accepts qualifying requests through online, mail, fax or in-person routes. Phone and email requests for a mailed blank affidavit are not accepted.
How to recover Texas pharmacy vaccine records
Pharmacy histories are often the fastest backup for vaccinations administered by chain or independent pharmacies.

When an ImmTrac2 record is not the only document you need
Contact the provider, pharmacy or immunization information system in each state where vaccines were administered.
Search military, VA or other federal medical-record systems when those organizations administered the vaccination.
An ImmTrac2 history can help collect past dates, but immigration medical documentation has its own federal process and should be confirmed with the appropriate authorized professional.
A general state vaccine history does not automatically replace specialized travel documents such as an International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis.
Lost yellow-fever “Yellow Card”
Texas DSHS says it does not routinely issue or reissue International Certificates of Vaccination or Prophylaxis. The original yellow-fever vaccination provider is the primary source for a replacement.
Ask for the exact proof before paying for anything
Call the receiving organization and the provider. Ask exactly which vaccine, date or validation element is missing.
Submit the ImmTrac2 request while contacting providers, pharmacies and previous schools on the same day.
Recover records from every state and provider, then have the receiving office review the documentation before the final deadline.

Texas vaccine records FAQs
How do I get my Texas vaccine record?
Use Texas DSHS Form F11-11406 when you need release of an available official ImmTrac2 immunization history. Also check healthcare providers, pharmacies, schools and local health departments for records they already hold.
Can I log into ImmTrac2 myself?
Direct ImmTrac2 portal access is intended for authorized organizations and users. Most residents use the official release form, provider, pharmacy, school or local-health-department route.
What is the difference between F11-11406 and F11-13366?
F11-11406 authorizes release of an official immunization history. F11-13366 grants adult consent for ImmTrac2 participation. One requests a record copy; the other controls registry participation.
Can a parent request a child’s ImmTrac2 record?
F11-11406 includes requester relationship options for a parent, legal guardian or managing conservator for a child. Parents can also request records from the child’s pediatrician, school or local health department.
What happens if adult consent is not completed before age 26?
Texas DSHS says a childhood ImmTrac2 record is held until age 26 after the participant becomes an adult. If adult consent is not submitted by the 26th birthday, the childhood registry records are deleted.
What does “Record Found, but No Immunizations Reported” mean?
It means ImmTrac2 located a matching client profile but no reported vaccine entries were available in that profile. Contact the healthcare providers and pharmacies that administered the vaccines.
Can I email F11-11406 to Texas DSHS?
Current DSHS public guidance allows completed forms to be submitted in PDF format to ImmTrac2@dshs.texas.gov. Fax and postal routes are also published. Verify the current instructions before sending private information.
How long does an ImmTrac2 record request take?
The current F11-11406 does not publish a guaranteed standard turnaround. DSHS says requests are processed in the order received, so deadline-sensitive users should also contact providers, pharmacies, schools or local health departments.
What vaccine records can a Texas school accept?
Texas guidance recognizes properly validated previous-school records, state or local health-authority records, qualifying electronic health records and other provider records containing the required identifying, vaccine-date and validation information.
What if some of my vaccines were given outside Texas?
Contact the provider, pharmacy or immunization registry in each jurisdiction where vaccines were administered. ImmTrac2 may not contain a complete out-of-state, military, federal or foreign vaccination history.
