From May 1 onwards people between the age group of 18-44 are eligible to register on the CoWIN portal to get vaccinated against COVID-19. It is important to register yourself before getting the vaccine. The Centre has also arranged walk-ins for above 45 years of age. People may also register for COVID-19 vaccination through other apps such as Aarogya Setu and Umang for the same. 

The government has also approved on-site registration. However, this is subject to vaccine availability. If a beneficiary does not appear on the day of the appointment, the vaccine can be used for walk-in entries. This decision was taken to reduce the wastage of COVID-19 vaccines. It is on the states to decide when to start the on-site registration facility based on the availability of extra vaccines. Most of the states have already started this.
