Vaccinations Vietnam

Planning a trip to Vietnam soon? Preparing well can help make your holiday enjoyable and safe. It is important to note that visiting Vietnam 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.

Vietnam is a vast country in Southeast Asia. For the most part, it has a tropical savanna climate with temperatures ranging from 20 to 35 degrees Celsius. The country has an incredible amount to offer. You can explore the bustling streets of Ho Chi Minh City (formerly known as Saigon) and visit the narrow Củ Chi tunnels from the Vietnam War. From the long beaches along the coast and the central highlands to the lush jungle, there is much to see and do.

For personalised travel advice and vaccinations, come see our travel nurses at KLM Health Services. They are ready to assist you. Keep an eye on the current safety situation at your destination and read our travel tips.
