Helping Families Travel with Confidence
Travelling overseas can expose children to health risks that may differ from those in Singapore.
Whether you are travelling with a young child, visiting a destination with specific vaccination requirements, or managing an existing medical condition while abroad, preparing ahead can help reduce health risks during your trip.
Our paediatricians provide travel medicine consultations and vaccination advice to help families prepare for safe and healthy travel.
Travel Vaccinations
Some destinations may require or recommend additional vaccinations beyond Singapore's routine childhood immunisation schedule.
Travel vaccinations commonly considered for children may include:
- Hepatitis A
- Typhoid
- Japanese Encephalitis
- Influenza (Flu)
- Meningococcal Vaccines
- Rabies
- Yellow Fever*
* Vaccination requirements vary depending on destination and travel itinerary.
When Should You Seek Travel Advice?
It is generally advisable to schedule for a consultation several weeks before departure, as some vaccines may require time to provide optimal protection.
A travel consultation may be helpful if:
- Your child is travelling overseas for the first time
- You are travelling to destinations with specific vaccination recommendations
- Your child has a chronic medical condition
- Your child has not completed routine childhood vaccinations
- You are travelling with infants or young children
