Booster dose



To prolong the efficiency of the vaccination after finishing the basic vaccination scheme, getting vaccinated with the booster dose is recommended.

In case you are entitled to get revaccinated by the booster dose because 3 months since finishing the basic vaccination scheme have passed, you will receive a text message saying: 

CPOJ 32xx28xx22 se muze registrovat na posilujici davku ockovani proti Covid-19. Kontaktujte praktickeho lekare nebo se registrujte na crs.mzcr.cz.

(CPOJ 32xx28xx22 can now register for booster dose vaccination against Covid-19. Contact your GP or register on crs.mzcr.cz.)

Vaccination with the second or any following booster dose is recommended for all persons prior to the autumn period due to an increased incidence of respiratory disease.

Booster doses are being administered to people older than 5 who have already been vaccinated by the basic vaccination scheme or at least one booster dose.

The vaccination certificate is generated after the vaccination and you can download it here. You can find more information about the certificate's validity in life situation Vaccination certificate.

Where to get vaccinated?

At the vaccination place after registration

The procedure of registering for the booster dose is the same like in case of the first dose. You can find the procedure in its own Life Situation. When registering through the Central booking system, it is necessary to use the same phone number that is saved in the ISIN system from the last entering of data (i.e. the last testing or vaccination). In case you come across any difficulties, contact Infoline 1221.

Self-payers will register through registration for self-payers.

At the vaccination place without registration

You can find a list of vaccination places that do not need registration here by clicking on the “Bez registrace a rezervace” (Without reservation or registration) filter.

At the general practitioner's

If you decide to get vaccinated at your general practitioner's, do not register through the Central booking system but make an appointment with your GP directly.
