    What the rules say

    What the national immunisation schedule says

    The card reproduces the National Immunisation Schedule of the Universal Immunisation Programme as the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare publishes it. Nothing is added to it.

    • National Immunisation Schedule, MoHFW (PIB, 17 Mar 2026)

      Birth to 14 weeks

      Birth: BCG, OPV-0 dose, Hepatitis B birth dose. 6 weeks: OPV-1, Pentavalent-1, RVV-1, fIPV-1, PCV-1. 10 weeks: OPV-2, Pentavalent-2, RVV-2. 14 weeks: OPV-3, Pentavalent-3, fIPV-2, RVV-3, PCV-2.

    • National Immunisation Schedule, MoHFW (PIB, 17 Mar 2026)

      9 months to 16 years

      9–12 months: MR-1, JE-1, PCV-Booster. 16–24 months: MR-2, JE-2, DPT-Booster-1, OPV-Booster. 5–6 years: DPT-Booster-2. 10 years: Td. 16 years: Td. The card prints these rows in this order, word for word.

    • PIB backgrounder, 17 Mar 2026; NHM schedule, footnote

      JE only in endemic districts

      "The Japanese Encephalitis vaccine is given to those living in endemic districts only." The JE rows carry that note, so a parent outside those districts is not left wondering about a blank line.

    • NHM, National Immunization Schedule, vaccine-wise table

      The windows the schedule gives

      The vaccine-wise table gives BCG "at birth or as early as possible till one year of age", the Hepatitis B birth dose "within 24 hours" and OPV-0 "within the first 15 days". The next-due column is left for the doctor to fill.

    • PIB backgrounder, 17 Mar 2026

      Free at government facilities

      "UIP vaccines are provided free of cost to all beneficiaries" at PHCs, CHCs, government hospitals, sub-centres and outreach sessions at Anganwadi centres. The card's footer says so, so parents know the option exists.

    • National Immunisation Schedule, MoHFW (PIB, 17 Mar 2026)

      Pregnant women are on the schedule too

      For the pregnant mother the schedule lists "Td-1, Td-2 or Td-Booster", the booster given if she was vaccinated within the previous 3 years. Record those on the mother's card; this card is for the child.

    How to use the card at the clinic

    The card is printed blank for the child's details and the dates. It is the parent's copy; keep your own record of each dose too.

    1. Write the child's name, date of birth, sex, parents' names, address and mobile on the first visit

    2. Give the card a number that matches your register or the child's file

    3. Enter the date in Date given on the day the dose is given, and initial the Sign column

    4. Write the Next due date for the following dose as you advise

    5. Write any vaccine outside the UIP schedule in the blank rows at the end, named in full and dated

    6. Hand the card back to the parent and ask them to bring it to every visit

    7. Note the dose in your own patient record as well; the card leaves with the family

    8. Before printing a batch, check the Ministry's current schedule; it changes when a vaccine is added

    The child's visits, in one record

    Vitels keeps each patient's visits and prescriptions in one record, prints on your letterhead, and keeps family members who share a phone number as separate patients. It has no vaccination schedule feature, so the printed card stays the family's record of doses.

    Questions

    Straight answers

    What is the vaccination schedule in India under the UIP?

    The National Immunisation Schedule runs from birth (BCG, OPV-0, Hepatitis B) through 6, 10 and 14 weeks (OPV, Pentavalent, RVV, fIPV, PCV), 9–12 months (MR-1, JE-1, PCV booster), 16–24 months (MR-2, JE-2, DPT booster-1, OPV booster), 5–6 years (DPT booster-2), and Td at 10 and 16 years. JE is given in endemic districts only.

    Does the card include the IAP schedule or optional vaccines?

    No. The card prints only the Universal Immunisation Programme schedule published by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. Vaccines a doctor advises outside it go in the blank rows labelled "Other vaccines advised by your doctor (not part of the UIP schedule above)", written by hand.

    Are UIP vaccines free?

    Yes, at government facilities. The PIB backgrounder of 17 March 2026 says UIP vaccines are provided free of cost to all beneficiaries at fixed sites such as Primary Health Centres, Community Health Centres and government hospitals, at sub-centres, and through outreach sessions at Anganwadi centres or other identified locations.

    Is the HPV vaccine on the card?

    The same PIB release says a nationwide HPV vaccination campaign was launched on 28 February 2026 for 14-year-old girls, free at government health facilities. Its schedule table does not list HPV, so the card does not print it. If you give it, write it in a blank row.

    Can parents keep the vaccination record on their phone?

    The government's U-WIN platform lets people find vaccination centres, manage appointments and keep vaccination records; PIB says one user can register up to 10 people on one mobile number. The paper card is still what most parents carry to a private clinic.

    Does the tool store the child's details?

    No child details are typed into it; the card prints blank lines for them. Your letterhead stays in this browser so the other Vitels tools can reuse it, and nothing is sent to Vitels.

    The schedule on this card is copied from the National Immunisation Schedule of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, as published in the PIB backgrounder of 17 March 2026 and the NHM schedule document, both read on 26 Oct 2026. This is not medical advice. The treating doctor decides which vaccine is given and when; follow the schedule your doctor advises. Check the Ministry's current schedule before printing in bulk.
