Vaccination Record Scanner
Digitize vaccination cards and immunization records. Free and private.
What Is This Tool?
Vaccination cards — whether childhood immunisation booklets, COVID-19 cards, or travel vaccination certificates — contain dates, vaccine names, and batch numbers that you may need to digitise for school enrollment, travel, or personal records. DoctorDocs' Vaccination Card Reader extracts this information from a photo or scan.
How It Works
The tool reads the structured fields typically found on vaccination cards: vaccine name, date administered, dose number, batch/lot number, and administering facility. It extracts these as clean text, preserving the association between each vaccine and its date.
Key Capabilities
Vaccination-specific extraction
Tuned for the structured layout of immunisation cards — vaccine names, dates, dose numbers, and lot/batch numbers.
Multiple card formats
Works with COVID-19 vaccination cards, childhood immunisation booklets, yellow fever certificates, and travel vaccination documents.
Handwritten entry support
Many vaccination entries are handwritten by nurses. The OCR engine handles clinical handwriting with Magic Enhance for faded entries.
Zero data retention
Your immunisation records are personal health data. Processing is in-browser or zero-retention — nothing is stored.
How to Use
Photograph your vaccination card
Lay the card flat in good lighting. Photograph the full card — front and back if both sides have entries.
Upload and process
Upload the photo. The tool extracts vaccine names, dates, dose numbers, and batch information from the card.
Verify extracted dates
Carefully check that all dates and vaccine names match the original card — these details matter for immunisation schedules.
Save your digital record
Copy the extracted text or download it as a backup of your physical vaccination card.
Common Use Cases

Accuracy & Limitations
Printed vaccination cards extract well. Handwritten entries and faded older cards may require the Magic Enhance filter for better contrast. Always verify extracted vaccine names, dates, and lot numbers against the physical card — an incorrect date could affect your immunisation schedule.
Privacy & Security
Vaccination records contain personal health information. Core OCR runs in your browser. Advanced processing uses zero-retention — your card is never stored.
