If you are travelling outside of the UK you and your child may need to be vaccinated against some of the serious diseases found in other parts of the world.
Some vaccinations are free, but you may have to pay for others. For more information visit NHS Inform.
Talk to your GP, practice nurse or travel health clinic about immunisations at least six weeks before travelling.
Some medicines or vaccinations have to be given well in advance of date of travel.
You can find out more about which vaccinations you may need by visiting NHS Fit For Travel.
