Make an enquiry

Our primary role in Australia is to provide expert technical immunisation advice to government. We operate independently of the Australian Government Department of Health.

We are unable to provide patient-specific medical advice via email. Please visit your General practitioner (GP) to discuss your specific clinical situation.

Healthcare providers are advised to contact the appropriate immunisation specialist service in your state if additional clinical support is required. 

Please visit the Australian Government Department of Health website for additional information about COVID-19 vaccines, eligibility, vaccination bookings and immunisation certificates.

The NCIRS Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) webpage also has answers to many commonly asked questions about COVID-19 vaccines.
