The Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) has announced that the portal and mobile app for issuing digital vaccination certificates to fully vaccinated Filipinos called the "VaxCertPH" is now up and running. “Even prior to WHO’s issuance of the standards for vaccination certificates, your DICT has already been working on the VaxCertPH in coordination with the DOH. The country's VaxCertPH was developed by the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) for the Department of Health (DOH). According to DICT, VaxCertPH relies on the data submitted by local government units (LGUs) through the Vaccine Information Management System (VIMS). The DICT also encourages LGUs who have yet to avail of the D-VAS to get in touch with any of the DICT’s regional offices, the DOH, or the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG).
