COVID-19 vaccinations and booster jabs for people without an NHS number
We have been hearing from people without an NHS number that they are worried they won't be able to get their COVID-19 booster jabs this winter.
The COVID-19 vaccine is free to everyone in the UK
This includes all migrants.
Millions of people have had their COVID-19 vaccination in the UK.
You do not need to have a GP or an NHS number to get the COVID-19 vaccine. If you don’t have an NHS number you can contact your local GP surgery to organise the vaccine or attend a COVID-19 vaccination walk-in centre or pop-up centre.
You will never be forced to have the COVID-19 vaccine and it does not affect your asylum
or refugee status.
No immigration checks are needed to get tested, treated or vaccinated for COVID-19.
