Who will be taking music exams this year? 
Will the exam boards only take pupils who have had the covid vaccine?

I will have an exam in May(I have 2 a year), but it’s online so there’s no requirements to be vaccinated.

Here in Western Australia, they're still doing standard in person exams. Had one of my students sit her Grade 4 yesterday.

You need to read the online instructions for the specific exam board in your country of residence.

ABRSM exams will resume face to face come late Summer in the UK.  But nothing was specified about  mask wearing and keeping the usual  precautions. 
Dogperson , you are right I could make enqiuries, but the reason I have not at the moment is because I have not taken the vaccine.  Whether that will pose a problem I don't know as yet.
