Proof of Immunizations
Only two types of exemptions are valid to waive immunizations:
Religious Belief: A written statement with the child’s name, the date and signed by the parent with a statement of a bona fide religious belief is required.
Medical: North Carolina requires the physician to complete a Medical Exemption Statement Form (DHHS 3987) for an immunization exemption to vaccinations. This form is accepted by schools for specified conditions.
