This guide gives you a practical, step-by-step workflow for getting a clean official copy and fixing missing records.
To download Washington vaccine records, start with MyIR Mobile. If your information matches the Washington State Immunization Information System, you may be able to view, download, and print your immunization record, a Certificate of Immunization Status, and COVID-19 vaccination certificate information.

Washington DOH also notes that the state system does not have complete records for every person, so backup routes are important.

What Washington Vaccine Records Mean
Washington vaccine records are documents showing vaccines reported to the state registry or stored by a doctor, clinic, pharmacy, school, college, employer health office, hospital system, military clinic, travel clinic, or local health department. They may include childhood vaccines, adult vaccines, school-required vaccines, COVID-19 vaccines, flu shots, travel vaccines, and other reported immunizations.
You may need an official copy for school enrollment, child care, camp, college, nursing school, medical assistant training, employment, healthcare credentialing, travel, military paperwork, immigration medical exams, or personal medical history. For school and child care, Washington commonly uses the Certificate of Immunization Status, usually called the CIS.

CDC IIS contactsWA IIS and MyIR Mobile: What Is the Difference?
The Washington State Immunization Information System is the secure, web-based lifetime registry used by authorized health care providers, schools, and public health programs. Many people shorten the name to WA IIS or WAIIS. MyIR Mobile is the public-facing route many families use to view and print available records from that system.
Official registry page: Washington State Immunization Information System| Tool or term | What it is | Who usually uses it |
|---|---|---|
| MyIR Mobile | Consumer portal for viewing and printing available immunization records. | Families, adults, parents, guardians and residents. |
| WA IIS / WAIIS | Washington’s secure lifetime immunization registry. | Providers, schools, public health programs and authorized users. |
| CIS | Certificate of Immunization Status for school and child care. | Parents, schools, child care programs and providers. |
| WA Verify | COVID-19 digital verification record route. | People needing COVID-specific digital proof. |
Washington Vaccine Records 2026: How to Download Your Official Copy
Follow these steps when you need a clean official Washington vaccine record. This workflow is built for normal families, students, workers and adults who need a printable copy without confusion.
- Open the official MyIR Mobile website. Start with the official MyIR Mobile site or Washington DOH record page. Avoid paid “instant vaccine record” websites that are not connected to Washington DOH. Official route: MyIR Mobile
- Create or sign in to your account. Enter your name, date of birth, phone, email and contact details carefully. Matching works best when your details match the Washington registry.
- Complete verification when prompted. MyIR may use phone verification or other account checks. If the phone number is old, try the number used when the vaccine was administered.
- Review your immunization history. Check vaccine names, dose dates, provider details and whether the record is for the correct person.
- Print or download the record. Save a secure PDF and print one copy. For school or child care, look for the Certificate of Immunization Status if available.
- Check missing doses right away. If a vaccine is missing, contact the provider, clinic, pharmacy or health department that gave the vaccine and ask whether it was reported to WA IIS.
- Use backup routes before the deadline. If MyIR does not work, ask your provider, pharmacy, child’s school, local health department or Washington DOH for help.
School and Child Care Vaccine Records: Washington CIS Form
Washington schools and child care programs commonly require a medically verified Certificate of Immunization Status, called the CIS. A CIS may be printed from MyIR Mobile or the Washington IIS when records are available, and families can also ask a provider or school for help.
Official family page: School and child care immunization information for familiesA school may not accept a casual screenshot if it specifically asks for a valid CIS. If your child recently moved from another state, bring the previous state’s immunization record to a Washington provider or school office and ask what is needed for a valid Washington CIS.
| School need | Best source | Practical action |
|---|---|---|
| Printed CIS from MyIR | MyIR Mobile. | Use when the child’s record links correctly and CIS is available. |
| Provider CIS | Doctor, clinic or health care provider. | Ask the provider to print a medically verified CIS or vaccine record. |
| School copy | Public school or some private schools. | Ask early because school staff may need time to print or verify records. |
| Hardcopy CIS | Washington DOH form with attached medical proof. | Attach medically verified records when required. |
| Certificate of Exemption | Washington COE process. | Follow Washington DOH exemption instructions; personal/philosophical exemption cannot be used for MMR. |
COVID-19 Vaccine Records and WA Verify
MyIR Mobile may show COVID-19 vaccination information when the record is available in the Washington immunization system and your account matches. Washington also has WA Verify for digital COVID-19 verification records. WA Verify is mainly for COVID-specific digital proof, not a full lifetime immunization history.
COVID digital route: WA Verify| COVID record type | Best use | Important limit |
|---|---|---|
| MyIR COVID certificate | COVID proof connected to your broader immunization record. | Only appears when the account and registry record match. |
| WA Verify | COVID-specific QR or digital verification record. | Not a full vaccine history. |
| Pharmacy COVID record | CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid, Costco, Safeway, QFC or pharmacy shots. | May be needed if MyIR or WA Verify does not match. |
| Provider portal record | Hospital or clinic vaccine proof. | Ask the receiving office if portal printouts are accepted. |
What If Your Washington Vaccine Record Is Missing or Wrong?
A missing Washington vaccine record does not automatically mean the vaccine was never given. It may mean the dose was not reported, the record is under another name, the vaccine was administered outside Washington, the provider has not updated the IIS, or the only copy is still in a provider, pharmacy, school, military or paper file.
Try legal name, maiden name, hyphenated name, adoption name, or the spelling used by the provider.
MyIR verification may depend on an older phone number connected with the vaccine record.
Oregon, Idaho, California, Texas, military or foreign doses may not show in Washington.
COVID, flu, RSV, shingles and travel shots may be easiest to find in pharmacy accounts.
Ask the provider or pharmacy whether it can verify or update the Washington IIS entry.
Old childhood records may require school files, college records, military files or titer discussion.
Fix a missing Washington vaccine record
- Contact the original vaccine source. Ask the doctor, clinic, pharmacy, hospital or health department for the exact vaccine name and date.
- Ask if the dose was reported to WA IIS. If the vaccine was given in Washington, ask whether the provider can verify or correct the registry record.
- Check school and college files. School nurses, registrars and university health offices may have copies you submitted earlier.
- Check pharmacy and hospital portals. Adult vaccines are often easiest to find through CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid, Costco, Safeway, QFC, Kaiser, Providence, MultiCare, UW Medicine, Virginia Mason or another portal.
- Use another state registry if needed. Use CDC’s IIS directory when the vaccine was given outside Washington.
- Ask a clinician about titers or catch-up vaccination. Do not pay for tests until the school, employer, college or civil surgeon confirms what it accepts.
Seattle, Spokane, Tacoma, Vancouver, Bellevue and Local Record Help
Washington vaccine records are statewide when they are in WA IIS, but local help still matters. If MyIR Mobile does not match your record, the fastest human source is often the provider, school, pharmacy, or local health department connected to the vaccine.
Local public health directory: Washington local health jurisdictions| If you live near | Common need | Best action |
|---|---|---|
| Seattle / King County | School CIS, COVID proof, college or job vaccine record. | Try MyIR, then ask provider, pharmacy, school nurse or local public health office. |
| Spokane | School vaccine form, old provider records, missing MyIR match. | Contact the vaccine source and ask whether the dose can be verified in WA IIS. |
| Tacoma / Pierce County | Child care CIS, provider record, adult work clearance. | Check MyIR and ask the clinic or school to print a record if available. |
| Vancouver / Clark County | Records split between Washington and Oregon. | Check Washington MyIR and Oregon registry/provider records if shots were given there. |
| Bellevue / Redmond / Eastside | Provider portal, MyChart, school CIS or college upload. | Use MyIR plus provider portals; ask the receiving office which record format it accepts. |
| Yakima / Tri-Cities / Bellingham | Local clinic, pharmacy, school or county help. | Call before visiting because ID, release form or appointment rules may apply. |
Washington Pharmacy, Provider and Hospital Vaccine Records
Many adult vaccines are given at pharmacies or large health systems. COVID-19, flu, RSV, shingles, pneumonia, hepatitis, Tdap and travel vaccines may be faster to find through the pharmacy or provider portal than through a registry support request.
Related internal guide: COVID Vaccine Record: Find & Download Yours FreeCheck the CVS or MinuteClinic account used when the appointment was made.
Use the same name, date of birth, phone and email connected to the vaccine visit.
Ask the pharmacy location for a printed immunization history or proof of administration.
Check the member portal and ask the clinic if a dose can be verified or corrected.
Check Providence, MultiCare, Virginia Mason, UW Medicine, Swedish or other portals.
Ask whether the dose was sent to WA IIS and whether patient details were correct.
Old Records, Out-of-State Shots and Titer Tests
Vaccines given outside Washington
If the vaccine was given in Oregon, Idaho, California, Texas, Florida, another state, a military clinic, or another country, it may not show in Washington’s system. Contact the registry or provider in the place where the shot was given.
Federal directory: CDC contacts for IIS immunization recordsOld doctor retired or clinic closed
Search for the successor practice, hospital group, medical records custodian, school health office, college health center, military clinic, pharmacy and current provider. Closed clinics often transfer records to another organization.
You need the record today
Try MyIR first, then call the provider, pharmacy and receiving office at the same time. Ask whether a provider printout, pharmacy proof, request confirmation or temporary document is accepted while a registry update is pending.
Titer tests
A titer is a blood test that may show immunity to some diseases, often MMR, varicella or hepatitis B. It can help when adult childhood records are lost, but the school, employer, college, civil surgeon or clinical program decides whether titers are accepted.
| Situation | Titers may help with | Ask first |
|---|---|---|
| Healthcare job | MMR, varicella, hepatitis B. | Ask occupational health for exact lab and result requirements. |
| Nursing or medical school | MMR, varicella, hepatitis B. | Ask whether positive IgG titers replace vaccine dates. |
| Immigration exam | Civil-surgeon reviewed proof. | Ask the civil surgeon before ordering independent labs. |
| K-12 school or child care | Limited situations depending on rules and documentation. | Follow Washington DOH and school instructions before relying on titers. |
