How to Fill in the Form for the COVID-19 Vaccine Ticket in Japan
If the vaccination becomes available in your area, the local government will send a “vaccine ticket” (新型コロナワクチンの予診票) to you. Before you can reserve a spot to get the COVID-19 vaccine, you must fill in the form for the vaccine ticket. In this blog, we would love to share with our Smilers how to properly input information and inform you all on what to do in order to get the COVID-19 vaccine.

1. Confirm if you can get the COVID-19 vaccine or not
Symptoms that appear after getting the COVID-19 vaccine differ from person to person. Some may be affected more severely than others.To see if you’re eligible to get the vaccine and to see the list of possible effects, you can check on Japan’s Ministry of Health website. Due to serious cases arising, we advise you to confirm your health condition before acquiring a reservation for the COVID-19 vaccine.
2. Find a hospital or vaccination site to get the COVID-19 vaccine
