Need a Washington State vaccine record for school, childcare, college, a healthcare job, travel, immigration paperwork, military paperwork, or your own family folder? Washington uses the Washington State Immunization Information System, also called WAIIS, and families can often view records through MyIR Mobile. This guide explains MyIR Mobile, Certificate of Immunization Status, WA Verify, school forms, missing records, and local record help.
To get Washington immunization records, start with MyIR Mobile, your healthcare provider, your pharmacy, or Washington DOH’s immunization record contact route. Washington DOH says MyIR Mobile can show immunization records, Certificate of Immunization Status, and COVID-19 vaccination certificate access when your registration matches the state registry.
Official starting point: Washington DOH access your family’s immunization informationIf MyIR Mobile does not find your record, do not assume you were never vaccinated. The shot may be under a different name, given in another state, stored in a pharmacy or clinic portal, held by a school, or never submitted to the Washington registry.

What Is WAIIS, the Washington State Immunization Information System?
WAIIS means Washington State Immunization Information System. Washington DOH describes it as a lifetime registry that keeps immunization records for people of all ages. The system is secure and is used by healthcare providers, schools, and public health partners.
Official registry page: Washington State Immunization Information SystemFor regular families, MyIR Mobile is usually the easier public-facing route. The WAIIS provider portal is mainly for authorized users, while MyIR Mobile is made for residents who want to view and print their own or their family’s official immunization records.
Public record access: MyIR MobileUse MyIR Mobile to access a child’s immunization record and Washington CIS when available.
Washington DOH family record accessCheck MyIR Mobile, provider portals, pharmacies, WA Verify for COVID records, and DOH record support.
Washington adult immunization resourcesWashington schools and childcares commonly need a Certificate of Immunization Status, called CIS.
School and childcare family formsHow To Get Washington Immunization Records Step by Step
Use this order because it starts with the fastest public route and then moves to provider, pharmacy, school, and Washington DOH support.
- Try MyIR Mobile first. Go to MyIR Mobile, create an account, and enter your information carefully. Washington DOH says your registration information is used to match your records with the state immunization registry.
- Check whether your record matches. Use your legal name, date of birth, current or old phone number, email, and address details. A mismatch can stop MyIR Mobile from linking to the correct record.
- Ask the provider or clinic that gave the vaccine. Your doctor, pediatrician, community clinic, local health department, hospital system, or vaccination clinic may be able to print a WAIIS record.
- For school or childcare, ask for the CIS. Washington schools and childcares generally need a Certificate of Immunization Status, not just a casual vaccine list.
- For COVID-19 QR proof, use WA Verify. WA Verify is specifically for a digital COVID-19 verification record. It does not replace every full immunization record or school CIS need.
- If MyIR Mobile fails, contact Washington DOH record support. Washington DOH lists WAIISRecords@doh.wa.gov for immunization record requests.
- Search another state if needed. If the shot was given in Oregon, Idaho, California, Alaska, another state, a military clinic, or outside the United States, that record may not be in Washington’s registry.
MyIR Mobile Washington Login, Registration and Record Matching
MyIR Mobile is the main public access tool for Washington residents who want to view their immunization records. Washington DOH says you register at MyIRMobile.com, your information is matched with the state immunization registry, and a phone verification code is used to finish the process.
Official MyIR instruction page: Access your family’s immunization informationIf MyIR Mobile does not match your record, it may be a data issue rather than a vaccine issue. Try the full legal name used at the doctor’s office, previous last names, hyphenated names, old phone numbers, old addresses, and the exact date of birth.
MyIR Mobile site: Open MyIR Mobile| MyIR Mobile issue | What it may mean | What to try |
|---|---|---|
| No match found | Your registration details may not match WAIIS. | Try legal name, previous names, old address, old phone number, and provider help. |
| Child not showing | Family linking or guardian details may not match. | Ask the child’s provider, school nurse, or DOH record support. |
| Missing vaccine date | Dose may not have been reported or may be in another system. | Check provider portal, pharmacy account, school record, or another state registry. |
| Need school proof | A full record may not be enough if school wants CIS. | Download the Certificate of Immunization Status if available. |
Washington Certificate of Immunization Status: CIS for School and Childcare
The Certificate of Immunization Status, usually called CIS, is Washington’s school and childcare immunization record form. MyIR Mobile can provide access to a CIS when the record is matched. Washington schools may also accept certain medically verified records depending on how the CIS is completed and documented.
Official family forms page: School and child care immunizations information for familiesA CIS is not just a random vaccine list. It is the form schools and childcare programs use to review whether the child is complete, conditional, or not complete for Washington requirements. If your CIS is not complete, the school may ask for additional records, provider verification, or updated vaccination dates.
School and childcare immunization hub: Washington school and child care immunization| Washington document | Used for | Where to get it |
|---|---|---|
| CIS | School, childcare, preschool, and attendance immunization proof. | MyIR Mobile, healthcare provider, school record, or DOH family forms page. |
| MyIR Mobile CIS | A state-approved digital/printable record when available. | MyIR Mobile account after registry matching. |
| Provider-verified CIS | Cases where records must be medically verified. | Doctor, clinic, local health department, or provider portal. |
| COE | Exemption from one or more school or childcare vaccine requirements. | Washington DOH Certificate of Exemption process. |
WA Verify, COVID-19 Records and SMART Health Cards
WA Verify is Washington’s digital COVID-19 verification record tool. It can provide a digital copy and QR code for COVID-19 vaccination verification. It is useful when you specifically need COVID-19 proof, but it is not the same as a full childhood immunization record or school CIS.
Official COVID verification tool: WA VerifyFor complete vaccine history, school CIS, or family records, use MyIR Mobile or the provider/local health department route. For COVID-19 only, WA Verify may be faster if the record is matched correctly.
Full-family record route: Washington DOH MyIR Mobile guidance| Tool | Best for | Not best for |
|---|---|---|
| MyIR Mobile | Immunization history, CIS, family records, and COVID certificate access. | A record that was never submitted or does not match your registration information. |
| WA Verify | Digital COVID-19 verification record and QR code. | Full school CIS or complete vaccine history. |
| Provider portal | Clinic, hospital, and provider-submitted vaccines. | Shots given elsewhere unless they were added to the chart. |
| Pharmacy account | Adult pharmacy vaccines like COVID-19, flu, RSV, shingles, and travel shots. | Childhood vaccines given by pediatricians or schools. |
Washington School and Childcare Immunization Records
Washington schools and childcare programs use immunization documentation to check whether a child meets state requirements. Families commonly need the Certificate of Immunization Status, and the school may review whether the child is complete, conditional, or missing required doses.
Official family guide: Washington school and childcare immunization information for familiesFor a child entering school, transferring from another state, entering childcare, or moving into Washington, bring every vaccine record you have. A provider, school nurse, or local health department may need to review dose dates and help produce a proper CIS.
Main school hub: Washington school and child care immunization| School situation | Likely record need | Best action |
|---|---|---|
| Childcare or preschool | CIS showing age-appropriate immunization status. | Use MyIR Mobile or ask the child’s provider for a verified CIS. |
| Kindergarten | Current CIS before attendance review. | Download from MyIR Mobile or request provider help early. |
| 7th grade | Updated record showing required grade-level doses. | Ask school nurse or provider whether the CIS is complete. |
| Out-of-state transfer | Prior state record plus Washington CIS review. | Bring old records to a provider, school, or local health department. |
| Exemption request | Certificate of Exemption, called COE. | Use current Washington DOH exemption instructions and form. |
Washington Local Record Help: Seattle, Spokane, Tacoma, Vancouver, Olympia and Yakima
If MyIR Mobile does not immediately solve your problem, local records can help. Many Washington residents find vaccine proof through a pediatrician, local health jurisdiction, school nurse, hospital portal, pharmacy profile, or county public health office.
Official DOH contact page: Washington DOH immunization contacts| If you live near | Common search intent | What to try |
|---|---|---|
| Seattle / King County | Seattle immunization records or King County vaccine record. | MyIR Mobile, provider portal, school nurse, pharmacy account, local public health resources, then DOH record support. |
| Spokane | Spokane vaccine records or school CIS help. | Clinic, local health district, school, MyIR Mobile, pharmacy records, then WAIISRecords support. |
| Tacoma / Pierce County | Tacoma immunization record or Pierce County shot record. | Provider, pharmacy, school record, local public health, MyIR Mobile, and DOH contact route. |

Safeway, CVS, Walgreens, Costco, Rite Aid, Fred Meyer and Pharmacy Vaccine Records in Washington
Many adult vaccine records are easiest to find through a pharmacy first. COVID-19, flu, RSV, shingles, pneumonia, hepatitis, Tdap, and travel vaccines may be stored in the pharmacy account even when they do not appear in a primary care portal.
Old-record backup help: Tips for locating old immunization recordsCheck the pharmacy profile or call the exact Safeway location where the vaccine was given.
Use the same CVS account, phone number, email, and date of birth used at the appointment.
Check your Walgreens account or ask the pharmacy for a vaccine history printout.
Ask the Costco pharmacy location for vaccine dates if the record is not in MyIR Mobile.
Contact the pharmacy chain or store where the dose was administered.
Check the pharmacy profile and ask for a vaccination record if needed for work or travel.
Why Your Washington Immunization Record May Be Missing
A missing WAIIS or MyIR Mobile record does not automatically mean you were not vaccinated. It can mean the dose was never reported, was entered with different personal information, was given outside Washington, or is stored in another system.
Official out-of-state help: CDC contacts for IIS immunization records| Problem | What it means | What to try next |
|---|---|---|
| Name mismatch | Record may be under maiden name, hyphenated name, old last name, or nickname. | Try previous names and ask your provider or DOH record support for help. |
| Wrong date of birth | One incorrect digit can stop MyIR Mobile from matching. | Verify date of birth in provider, pharmacy, and school records. |
| Out-of-state vaccine | Dose may be in Oregon, Idaho, California, Alaska, or another state registry. | Contact the provider or registry where the shot was actually given. |
| Pharmacy record split | Adult vaccines may be in a pharmacy account but not linked to MyIR Mobile yet. | Ask the pharmacy for a vaccine history printout. |
| Old paper-only record | Older childhood shots may not have been uploaded to WAIIS. | Search schools, colleges, baby books, pediatrician files, and old county records. |
| Military or VA vaccine | Federal vaccine records may not appear in a state civilian registry. | Check VA, TRICARE, base clinic, or military medical records. |
Washington Certificate of Exemption: COE for School and Childcare
Washington’s Certificate of Exemption, called COE, is separate from an immunization record. A vaccine record proves doses. An exemption explains why a child is exempt from one or more school or childcare immunization requirements.
Official family forms page: Washington immunization forms for familiesDo not confuse the CIS and COE. A CIS is used to document vaccination status. A COE is used for exemption documentation. Schools may ask for the correct form and may not accept a casual note if the official COE process is required.
Official COE PDF: Washington Certificate of Exemption| Document | Purpose | Important note |
|---|---|---|
| CIS | Shows immunization status and vaccine dates. | Used for school and childcare vaccination proof. |
| COE | Documents exemption from one or more vaccine requirements. | Use current Washington DOH form and school instructions. |
| Medical vaccine record | Supports CIS completion or proof review. | May need provider verification depending on school requirements. |
Washington Immunization Records vs Full Medical Records
A Washington immunization record is not the same as a complete medical record. A vaccine record usually lists vaccine names and dose dates. A full medical record may include doctor notes, lab results, diagnoses, hospital visits, prescriptions, imaging, and other treatment history.
For vaccine records, start with Washington DOH MyIR guidance. For full medical records, contact the hospital or clinic medical records department.| Need | Ask for | Where to start |
|---|---|---|
| School vaccine proof | Certificate of Immunization Status. | MyIR Mobile, provider, school nurse, or local health department. |
| Adult vaccine history | WAIIS immunization history or provider record. | MyIR Mobile, provider, pharmacy, WA DOH record support. |
| COVID-19 QR proof | Digital COVID-19 verification record. | WA Verify. |
| Full hospital chart | Complete medical records. | Hospital or clinic medical records department. |
Titer Tests When Washington Vaccine Records Are Lost
A titer is a blood test that can show immunity to some diseases. It may help when adult childhood vaccine records are lost, especially for healthcare jobs, nursing school, medical programs, college programs, or immigration-related medical review. But the organization asking for proof decides whether titers are accepted.
| Situation | Titers may help with | Ask first |
|---|---|---|
| Healthcare job | MMR, varicella, hepatitis B. | Ask occupational health which lab format is accepted. |
| Nursing or medical school | MMR, varicella, hepatitis B. | Ask whether positive IgG titers replace vaccine dates. |
| School CIS issue | Only if school or DOH rules allow it for that requirement. | Ask the school nurse or provider before paying for labs. |
| Immigration medical exam | Civil surgeon-reviewed proof. | Ask the civil surgeon before ordering labs. |
