Vaccinations Afghanistan

Planning a trip to Afghanistan soon? Preparing well can help make your holiday enjoyable and safe. It is important to note that visiting Afghanistan carries certain health risks, so vaccinations are recommended and may even be mandatory. The vaccinations you will need depend on factors such as the regions you will be visiting and the length of your stay. Simply make an appointment with us to get personalised travel advice.

Afghanistan is located in Central Asia and shares borders with Iran, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and China. This mountainous country has very cold winters and hot summers. After the hottest month of July, temperatures cool down a bit in August before the transition to winter begins in October. No matter what your trip through Afghanistan will look like, be aware of infectious diseases and mosquitoes; malaria is present in Afghanistan.
