Proof to give an employer or school, usually about an absence, recovery, or fitness for work.

Proof written for an insurer, an official body, or another third party that needs a formal record.

If your situation does not fit any group above, describe it and who the document is for. A custom certificate may still be possible.

Custom Special Certificate

How it works

1. Find your use

Start from who will receive the certificate — an employer, an insurer, an airline, or a landlord — not from the document name.

2. Open the service page

Each card links to its own page, with what the certificate covers and what information you will be asked for.

3. Clinician review

Complete the assessment on that page. A licensed physician reviews it and decides whether the certificate is appropriate.

4. Receive your certificate

If approved, you receive the certificate and can download it from your account.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a doctor’s note and a medical certificate?

A doctor’s note is a short absence note for work or school. A medical certificate is a longer, purpose-specific document — for example, for an insurance claim, a flight refund, or a housing contract — and it is written for a particular recipient.

I do not know which certificate I need. Where do I start?

Start from the recipient: who asked for the proof, and what do they need it to say? Match that to a group above. If none of the groups fits, use the Custom Special Certificate at the bottom of this page.

Can one certificate be used for two different recipients?

Sometimes, but not always. A certificate written for an insurer may not contain what an employer needs, and vice versa. Check the service page for each recipient before you apply.

What should I check before I apply?

Check the recipient’s deadline, whether they have their own form, and what dates or details they require. Applying with the wrong recipient or wrong dates is the most common reason a document has to be redone.

What if my situation is not listed here?

Use the Custom Special Certificate. Describe your situation and who the document is for, and the team can tell you whether it can be covered.
