Travel & Vaccination Clinics in Singapore

What a travel and vaccination clinic provides

Travel clinics offer pre-travel health advice and vaccinations tailored to your destination, itinerary and health history. Services typically include routine and travel-specific immunisations, yellow fever vaccination and certification at authorised centres, malaria prevention advice and medication, and guidance on food, water and insect-bite precautions. They can also advise travellers with existing conditions, pregnant travellers and families. It is best to attend several weeks before departure, as some vaccines need time to take effect or are given as a course, though last-minute advice still has value.

How to choose a travel and vaccination clinic in Singapore

Look for clinics staffed by doctors registered with the Singapore Medical Council (SMC). If you need a yellow fever certificate, confirm the clinic is an authorised yellow fever vaccination centre, as only designated centres can issue the certificate. Consider the range of vaccines stocked, availability of appointments before your trip, and clear written advice. Accessibility and opening hours matter for busy travellers.

Getting there

Many private clinics cluster in the Orchard medical belt near Orchard MRT and the Novena health-city belt near Novena MRT, while travel health services are also available at some polyclinics and hospital-based centres across the island. Check each clinic’s own address, nearest MRT and parking, and confirm authorised status before booking a yellow fever appointment.

Costs and financing

Travel vaccinations and pre-travel consultations are generally elective and usually paid out of pocket, and routine travel jabs are typically not claimable under MediSave or MediShield. Costs vary with the vaccines required. Some employers or insurers reimburse travel health expenses, so check your own coverage. Confirm fees with the clinic before your visit.

Common questions

How early should I visit before travelling?

Ideally four to six weeks ahead, as some vaccines need time to work or come as a course. Even a late visit can still offer useful protection and advice.

Where can I get a yellow fever certificate?

Only at an authorised yellow fever vaccination centre. Confirm a clinic’s authorised status before booking if your destination requires the certificate.

Do I need anti-malarial medication?

It depends on your destination and itinerary. A travel doctor can advise whether prophylaxis is recommended and which option suits you.
