All COVID-19 vaccines, including your first dose(s) and additional booster shot, are completely free. You do not need to pay, show ID, or have health insurance to get a booster.

You do not need to bring your CDC vaccine card or any proof of previous COVID-19 vaccine doses to get a booster. If you have your vaccine card it is helpful so that your booster dose can be added to it, but you do not need to show your CDC vaccination card to get your booster. You will be asked to self-attest that you meet eligibility requirements such as age, health conditions, or occupation.

There are no ID, or health insurance requirements. Your vaccinator may choose to look up your vaccine records to confirm the type of vaccine you received before.
