Frequently asked questions – online booking system
I live in metropolitan Melbourne – can I travel more than 25km to get a COVID-19 vaccine?
You can travel more than 25km from your home to get vaccinated if this is your nearest vaccination location.
Will more appointments be added to the online booking system?
More appointments will be added to the online booking system as more doses become available. If you have already had your first dose of COVID-19 vaccine you are encouraged to book your second dose.
Vaccination centres are only able to make appointments available when they know how many doses of vaccine they are receiving from the Australian Government. This means that appointments are only available for a couple of weeks in advance.

If you have already had your first dose of COVID-19 vaccine we encourage you to book your second vaccine appointment as soon as possible. You shouldn’t wait to receive a reminder.
