International Vaccination Certificates
Your travel medicine provider will issue you an International Vaccination book as a record of your yellow fever vaccination.
You should store this vaccination book safely with your passport. The Yellow Fever certificate is valid for life for most persons vaccinated. ( Those vaccinated as children or with immunosuppressive disorders should speak to their travel doctor.)
WHO report here dated May 2014.
NOTE re LOST CERTIFICATES
if you have had the Yellow fever vaccine in the past and have lost your certificate……
- Try to remember who gave it to you last time, as they may be able to reissue the certificate.
- Yellow fever providers cannot reissue certificates without proof of prior vaccination including the BATCH NUMBER.
- Otherwise…. you have to have the vaccine again. For most travellers it is safe to repeat the vaccination.
