Travel vaccinations
for Pakistan.

Malaria is present throughout most of Pakistan, and typhoid remains a genuine concern, including drug-resistant strains detected in returning travellers. If you’re staying for 4 weeks or more, there’s also a polio exit requirement worth knowing about well before you fly. Our GPhC-registered pharmacist provides a full pre-travel health assessment and your recommended vaccines in a single visit.

Entry and exit requirements

What you need before you travel to Pakistan.

There is no yellow fever risk within Pakistan, but a certificate is required if you arrive from a country with yellow fever risk, or have transited more than 12 hours through an airport in such a country. If you’re staying in Pakistan for 4 weeks or more, proof of polio vaccination given between 4 weeks and 12 months before departure may be required when you leave the country, so this is worth planning for well ahead of a longer trip.

Malaria risk is present throughout the year in most of Pakistan below 2,000m, with the exception of Punjab province and the city of Karachi. Since 2016, Pakistan has experienced an ongoing outbreak of extensively drug-resistant typhoid, with cases detected in travellers returning to the UK, making typhoid vaccination a genuine priority rather than a routine formality for this destination.

Staying 4 weeks or more? Plan your polio booster early. Proof of polio vaccination given 4 weeks to 12 months before you leave Pakistan may be required on exit. Leaving this too late could mean being vaccinated at the border.
Veritas Pharmacy is an approved Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre. If your onward itinerary requires it, we can issue your ICVP certificate on the same day as your appointment, subject to clinical assessment.

What we can provide.

Polio booster for longer stays

If you’re staying 4 weeks or more, a documented booster within the right timeframe may be needed for your exit from Pakistan.

Your pharmacist reviews your itinerary, length of stay, health history and current vaccination status to identify what you need.

Vaccinations and antimalarial prescription

Any recommended vaccines available on the day are administered at the appointment. Antimalarial tablets are prescribed if suitable for you.

FAQs

Pakistan travel vaccination FAQs.

Do I need proof of polio vaccination to leave Pakistan?
If you’re staying for 4 weeks or more, proof of polio vaccination given between 4 weeks and 12 months before you leave may be required on exit. This is worth planning for well before a longer trip, since leaving it too late can mean being vaccinated at the border.
Is typhoid a bigger concern in Pakistan than elsewhere?
Yes. Since 2016, Pakistan has experienced an ongoing outbreak of extensively drug-resistant typhoid, with cases reported in travellers returning to the UK. Vaccination is strongly recommended for all travellers, not just a routine precaution.
Is malaria a risk throughout Pakistan?
Malaria risk is present throughout the year in most of the country below 2,000m, with the exception of Punjab province and the city of Karachi. Your pharmacist will confirm whether antimalarial tablets are recommended for your specific itinerary.
Do I need a Yellow Fever certificate for Pakistan?
There’s no yellow fever risk within Pakistan, but a certificate is required if you arrive from, or have transited through, a country with yellow fever risk.
Do I need a GP referral for Pakistan travel vaccines?
No. You can book directly with our travel health pharmacist without a GP referral, including advice on the polio exit requirement if your trip is 4 weeks or longer.
