See a pharmacist or doctor 6 to 12 weeks before you leave, and at least 6 to 8 weeks if you can. Some travel vaccines need more than one dose, and many take a couple of weeks to build protection, so last-minute timing can leave you short. If your trip is sooner than that, it is still worth a consultation, since partial protection or alternatives may be possible.
It depends on your destination, your activities and your health. Trips to some regions raise the relevance of vaccines such as hepatitis A, typhoid or others, and a few destinations have entry requirements. A pre-travel consultation matches your itinerary to current advice rather than a fixed checklist. For country-by-country requirements, check Smartraveller and discuss them with your pharmacist or a travel clinic.
Pharmacists can give advice on travel vaccinations and administer many of them. Some vaccines, such as yellow fever, can only be given at approved centres, so if your destination needs one, check that the clinic is accredited. Confirm with the pharmacy which specific vaccines they stock and give before you book.
Use the locator to find a pharmacy near you offering travel vaccinations, then call ahead to confirm they cover the vaccines your trip needs. For specialised requirements like yellow fever, you may need an accredited travel clinic.
