As the Covid-19 vaccination certificate has emerged as an important document for domestic and international travel, the central government has introduced a new feature that will enable the beneficiaries to correct errors in their name, birth year, and gender printed on the Co-Win vaccination certificate.
About CoWIN
Currently, CoWIN is working as the technological backbone of India’s vaccination drive. The app provides for an effective rollout for scaling up the mechanism of the COVID Vaccine Distribution System.
Vaccination Certificate
When a person receives the first dose of the COVID vaccine, the government issues a vaccination certificate that confirms a person has been inoculated. This is given immediately after the person receives the first jab. The certificate contains all the basic details of the beneficiary like name, age, gender, and also all the details of vaccination. Under the vaccination details, one can find the data like vaccine name, date of receiving the first dose, the next due date, location at which the person was vaccinated, and by whom.
Covid-19 vaccination certificate can be downloaded both from the CoWin portal as well as from the Aarogya Setu app.

3.Select raise an issue under your account details.
4. Select correction in the certificate.
5. Select the field in which you want to make corrections.
6. Editing the option for the corrections is for only one time.
