Travel health

Book a travel consultation six to eight weeks before you leave. Your GP reviews your itinerary and health, advises on vaccines such as hepatitis A and B, typhoid, yellow fever, rabies, Japanese encephalitis and meningococcal disease, and discusses malaria prevention, traveller's diarrhoea, altitude and safety. Travel vaccines are privately purchased and attract a fee; the consultation is bulk billed.

Common questions.

Common questions about vaccinations.

Vaccines on the National Immunisation Program are free for eligible people: the full childhood schedule, and influenza, shingles, pneumococcal and some other vaccines for eligible age groups and conditions. Your GP checks your eligibility.

Six to eight weeks before departure is ideal, as some vaccines need more than one dose or take time to work. If you are leaving sooner, book anyway; there is usually still protection we can offer.

Yes. Book one appointment per person and let reception know so they are scheduled together.

Through your myGov account linked to Medicare, or the Express Plus Medicare app. Your GP can also print a statement from the Australian Immunisation Register.

Influenza, whooping cough and RSV vaccines are recommended in pregnancy and protect your baby in the first months of life. Your GP will discuss timing with you.
