Why You Need Travel Vaccines for India

India’s diverse environments, food culture, and climate mean you may be exposed to:

  • Food- and water-borne illnesses (Hepatitis A, Typhoid, Cholera)

  • Mosquito-borne infections (Dengue, Japanese Encephalitis, Malaria*)

  • Blood- or animal-related risks (Hepatitis B, Rabies, Tetanus)

Not all travellers need every vaccine — our clinicians will create a personalised plan based on your travel plans.

Recommended Travel Vaccines for India

1) Hepatitis A

  • Spread via contaminated food and water.

  • Recommended for most travellers.

  • One dose before travel; booster at 6–12 months gives long-term cover.

2) Typhoid

  • Common in areas with poor sanitation.

  • Important for local food, street food, or rural stays.

  • Injectable (3 years’ cover) or oral (5 years).

3) Tetanus (Td/IPV)

  • Spread through wounds, cuts, or animal bites.

  • All travellers should be up to date; booster every 10 years.

4) Hepatitis B

  • Spread via blood, medical/dental procedures, tattoos, and sexual contact.

  • Recommended for long stays, volunteers, healthcare workers, or those seeking medical care abroad.

  • Standard and accelerated courses available.

5) Rabies

  • Found in dogs, monkeys, and bats across India.

  • Recommended for long stays, rural travel, trekking, volunteering, or animal contact.

  • Pre-exposure vaccine simplifies treatment after bites/scratches.

6) Japanese Encephalitis (JE)

  • A mosquito-borne infection present in rural and agricultural areas, especially during monsoon.

  • Recommended for long stays, rural visits, or outdoor activities like trekking or camping.

7) Cholera

  • Spread through contaminated food and water.

  • Considered for travellers visiting rural areas, humanitarian workers, or those with limited access to clean water.

8) Dengue

  • Spread by day-biting mosquitoes.

  • No routine medication — vaccine options may be available for eligible travellers.

  • Bite prevention is essential.
