You can issue an electronic vaccination certificate using a special app provided by the government and your My Number card.
Installation method
You can search for “New Corona Vaccination Certificate App” on the AppStore or GooglePlay and install it.

It can be issued from the time it is registered, but it may take several days to several weeks to register the vaccination record depending on the municipality.

Considerations
About inoculation abroad
We cannot issue a new corona vaccine vaccination certificate for vaccinations received overseas (inoculations not based on the Japanese Vaccination Act).
About the municipality to apply for
If you move in or out between the first and second vaccinations, you can apply for the vaccination certificate at the municipality where you were registered as a resident at the time of the vaccination.
