The case has been reported to the coroner, who is investigating.
Preliminary information from the post mortem examination identified myocarditis as the probable cause of death.
After reviewing the information, the Board believes the man's death is probably linked to the vaccine.
"With the current available information, the Board has considered that the myocarditis was probably due to vaccination in this individual" a statement from the Ministry of Health said.
The board noted there were no reported symptoms prior to the vaccine and the symptoms of myocarditis developed in the days immediately following his first vaccine dose.
The man had not sought medical advice or treatment for his symptoms.
Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle wall which is often caused by a viral infection. It is a known but rare side effect of the Pfizer vaccine.
While the majority of cases are minor, there have been 117 deaths reported with a possible link to the vaccine. Of those, only one has been deemed linked to the vaccination - a woman who also died from myocarditis.
Ashleigh Wilson said her fiancee Nairn, "started feeling heart flutters" a few hours after his jab.
"We put this down to stress as we were in the process of selling and buying a house and planning a wedding," she said.
At 3am on November 17 the couple decided to go to the hospital for "reassurance".
"I watched him die and I could not get to him. We were about to leave for hospital and he was in the toilet and I heard a thud.
"He had fallen, his body was blocking the door, his full weight was against it and I couldn't get it open," she said.
Wilson called 111 and paramedics tried for 40 minutes to resuscitate him but he was pronounced dead.
Last week, Wilson posted a copy of an autopsy report to social media in which a pathologist who conducted the autopsy said: "It is my opinion that the cause of death is acute myocarditis, and in view of the history of symptoms since Covid-19 vaccination, and no other cause for myocarditis, is consistent with vaccine-related myocarditis.
"Vaccination with the first Pfizer dose had occurred 12 days earlier and myocarditis-related symptomatology was reported thereafter."
The pathologist said there were no other significant contributing factors linked to his death.
While the Board acknowledge the man's death, it said the benefits of the vaccination "continue to greatly outweigh the risk of such rare side effects".
However, the Board has recommended actions to be taken by the Covid-19 Vaccine and Immunisation Programme to continue to highlight myocarditis as a very rare side effect of the Pfizer vaccine.
"The Board noted that Covid-19 infection can itself be a cause of myocarditis as well as other serious illnesses and it remains safer to be vaccinated than to be infected with the virus," a statement from the Ministry of Health said.
Another case that was examined was the death of a of 13-year-old child, which has been reported to the coroner.
But, further information is required before a determination on the role of the vaccine can be made. A statement will be made when that information is available.
The third case was the death of a man in his 60s, however, the Board believes his death was "unlikely related to vaccination".
"The time from vaccination to the onset of symptoms and clinical factors point to other causes and is not consistent with a causal link," the Board said.
According to Medsafe more than 7.3 million doses of the vaccination have been administered in New Zealand so far, with an average of 52 out of every 10,000 people reporting an adverse event afterwards.
