What typhoid is

Typhoid is a bacterial infection spread through contaminated food and water.

Who needs the vaccine

Recommended for travel to parts of Asia, Africa and Central and South America, especially for longer trips or visiting friends and family. Check the advice for your destination on fitfortravel.

Before you go

Get advice 6 to 8 weeks before you travel if you can. Our pharmacist will tell you how many doses you need and when, once our travel clinic opens. Until then, your GP practice can give travel advice and some vaccines free on the NHS.

Frequently asked questions

Is the typhoid vaccine free?

Some travel vaccines are free on the NHS from your GP practice and others are private. Ask your GP practice or check fitfortravel.

How far ahead should I get it?

Ideally 6 to 8 weeks before you travel, as some vaccines need more than one dose or time to work.
