It will be initially available to fully vaccinated international travelers and Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) in the National Capital Region (NCR). The VaxCertPH is part of the DICT’s Vaccine Information Management System (VIMS) and will enable the National COVID-19 Vaccination Operations Center to vaccinate as many people at the fastest time as possible.
Earlier the DICT said that from the time VaxCertPH “was conceptualized”, the Philippine government owned both “source code and data captured by the system.”
The agency has yet to determine when the service will be made available to all Filipinos. (AW)
