Procedure 11: Additional health (certificado autonómico de vacunación)

What you need to have at hand

1. Cl@ve or digital certificate/DNIe. Without this you'll need the electronic registry.
2. DNI/NIE and Tarjeta Sanitaria Individual (TSI) with your mobile updated.
3. Vaccination card and certificates for doses given outside your CCAA.
4. If requesting for a minor: libro de familia or signed authorisation.

Documentation

• DNI o NIE scanned (both sides if NIE + TIE).
• TSI or CIP/CIPA of your CCAA.
• Vaccination book/card and, if applicable, certificates from the centre where you were vaccinated.
• Translation if the proof is not in Spanish.
• Authorisation and libro de familia for minors or dependents.
• Empadronamiento only if they ask for it because you don't appear in the regional database.

Step by step

1. Access your CCAA health portal and log in with Cl@ve/certificate:
   • Madrid: https://www.comunidad.madrid/servicios/salud/carpeta-salud
   • Cataluña: https://lamevasalut.gencat.cat
   • Andalucía: https://www.sspa.juntadeandalucia.es/servicioandaluzdesalud/clicsaludplus
2. Look for 'Certificados' or 'Vacunación'. If your vaccines are listed, download the certificate immediately (PDF).
3. Missing doses? Upload the proofs from the portal (if it allows) and request a volcado al registro vacunal.
4. If your portal lacks that option or you can't log in, submit an application via the REC: https://rec.redsara.es/registro/action/are/acceso.do. Address it to Dirección General de Salud Pública of your CCAA, request “Certificado de vacunación” and attach DNI, TSI and the vaccination card.
5. Keep an eye on notifications in the Carpeta Ciudadana (https://carpetaciudadana.gob.es) and on email/SMS in case they ask you to fix something.
6. Once they confirm the upload, return to the portal and download the updated PDF. If you need a bilingual version or a stamp, ask at your health centre or vaccination unit.

Time-saving tricks

• Check your mobile number on the TSI before trying to log in. Without SMS you'll lose time.
• If vaccinated elsewhere, put everything in a single PDF ordered (dose, dates, batch) so Salud Pública can process it faster.
• Cl@ve advanced level or digital certificate: fewer headaches than SMS.
• If it's urgent, state the deadline (enrolment, travel) in the REC request and attach proof; they sometimes prioritise.

Common mistakes to avoid

• Uploading blurry photos of the card: they won't register them and will ask you to repeat.
• Assuming the certificate will be complete instantly after uploading external vaccines: the upload takes days or weeks.
• Not being registered as the child's representative and expecting to download their certificate: if the portal doesn't recognise you, you need authorisation and REC.
• Using obscure browsers: many health portals work better in Chrome or with Java up to date. Try another browser before giving up.
