Cowin Certificate Alteration : Error correction, name change, gender and age alteration

R.S. Sharma, Chairman of the Empowered Group on COVID vaccination, spoke about how the digital CoWin platform being put in place by the government will introduce a new feature which will allow certificate information to be corrected after it is uploaded.

This change came about as a result of some data entry errors being brought to the attention of management. We are distributing a patch — an application — which enables certificate corrections and issue of certificates. Dr. Sharma said, “The provision is completely new, and the certificate is available to anyone in the world to check via the internet.”

Dr. Sharma remarked that within the next couple of days, this software would be put in place, which would enable minor changes in a name or errors in a surname.

Here’s how you can request a change in the certificate through CoWin:

1. Visit the official website of CoWin i.e. https://www.cowin.gov.in/

2. Go to your account on Cowin.gov.in.

3. Select raise an issue under your account details.
