Rejected petition Allow those vaccinated abroad to update their NHS record and book a booster jab.
It is currently not possible for those who received one or both of their initial Covid-19 vaccines abroad to arrange a booster jab. This is because there appears to be no process in place for those people to add their vaccination details to their NHS record.
More details
Action on this issue was promised by government back in July but nothing has materialised and we now face another winter with a new variant. With the government strongly encouraging people to get their booster jab, will they help what must be thousands who are stuck in limbo and have no way of getting their booster jab as well as updating their NHS record?

We can't publish petitions when the request is something that's already happening or something that has been announced since you started your petition.
We think your petition is covered by Government or Parliament action already. If you'd like something else, you could start a new petition clearly explaining what it is.
People residing in England and vaccinated overseas with approved vaccines can now be certified using the NHS COVID Pass.
