Registering for vaccination<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For the time being, you can get vaccinated only if you register first at the official vaccine information website here<\/a>. You can register only if you have a Hungarian social security number <\/strong>(TAJ number). Because of that, foreigners living in Hungary with a private health-care insurance cannot register. After registration, you will receive newsletters every week to keep you up to date. Should you have any questions about your registration, you can contact adatvedelem@mk.gov.hu<\/a>. They are quite responsive, at least in Hungarian. You can also check if your registration has been successful on this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neither of the vaccines is currently available at private providers. (There was one provider that offered \u201cpre-registration\u201d for HUF 5,000, but they were not able to offer information as to when they could vaccinate you. In the end, pre-registration was cancelled and they refunded the registration fee to everyone.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IMPORTANT!<\/span><\/strong> In the past weeks, several people have posted and shared the (mis)information that even if you have no TAJ number, you can register for the vaccine in Hungary with a generic number 900 000 007. PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS.<\/strong> Click here to learn why.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your GP is involved in deciding how\/when you get vaccinated<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Technically, you CAN register for vaccination even if you do not have a GP (general practitioner \u2013 a doctor you can visit first when you have a medical problem, and who can send you on to specialists). However, since GPs are involved in the process of sorting people before vaccination, if you do not have a GP, your data will not be processed, and you will not be assigned a time and place for vaccination. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(The information available about this is conflicting and some state sources say that if you have no GP, you will be assigned to one based on your address. In our experience, this doesn\u2019t really work, so if you want to be safe, you should register at a GP and make sure they have your TAJ number on file.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
