Yellow fever: we cannot give this, and here is where you go

Who this is recommended for

• Travellers to countries with a yellow fever entry requirement or transmission risk
• Anyone whose destination requires an International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis
• Not required for pilgrims travelling to Saudi Arabia directly from India

Schedule

A single dose. The certificate becomes valid ten days after vaccination and is then valid for life.

Timing

Plan at least three weeks ahead. The certificate is not valid until day ten, and appointment slots are limited.

What we will not gloss over

• The certificate must be the original. Photocopies are rejected, and alterations invalidate it.
• Take your original passport to the appointment; it is mandatory.
• Exemption certificates can be issued for infants under nine months, pregnancy, thymus disorders and immunocompromised travellers.
• Do not travel within ten days of vaccination.

Where to go

We have no commercial interest in this and take no fee for it. If your travel plans need this vaccine plus others we can give, book the government appointment first and we will fit the rest around it.
