Travel Vaccines
Travel vaccines are immunisations that protect people from diseases they may be exposed to when travelling to other countries or regions.
They are recommended because some infections are more common in certain parts of the world than in others.
Common travel vaccines include:
- Hepatitis A – spread through contaminated food or water.
- Typhoid Fever – also spread through contaminated food and water.
- Yellow Fever – a vaccine is required for travel to some tropical regions.
- Japanese Encephalitis – found in parts of Asia and the Western Pacific.
- Rabies – recommended for travel to areas where rabies is common and medical care may be limited.
- Meningococcal Disease – sometimes required for travel to certain countries or large gatherings.

Why travel vaccines are important:
- They protect you from serious diseases that may not be common in Australia.
- Some countries require certain vaccines before entry.
- They reduce the risk of getting sick while overseas and bringing illness back home.
Travel vaccines are immunisations given before travelling to protect against diseases that are more common in other countries. They help prevent serious illnesses such as hepatitis A, typhoid, and yellow fever.
