Travel Vaccines (Pre-travel Vaccination)
Before overseas assignments, studying abroad, or long-term travel, vaccination tailored to the infectious disease risks of your destination is recommended. At Mona Aoyama Clinic, we will inquire about your destination, duration, and travel style (urban/rural, short-term/long-term) and propose a combination of necessary vaccines and a schedule.

* About Yellow Fever Vaccine
The yellow fever vaccine can only be administered at designated institutions such as quarantine stations in Japan, and not at general medical institutions. Some countries in Africa and Central/South America require a vaccination certificate (yellow card) for entry.
While our clinic cannot administer the yellow fever vaccine, we offer pre-travel consultations that include determining if vaccination is necessary, providing information on quarantine stations, and coordinating schedules with other travel vaccines. Please also consult us regarding the adjustment of vaccination intervals between yellow fever (live vaccine) and other vaccines.
Approximate Pre-travel Schedule
-
Since some vaccines require multiple doses (Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Rabies, etc.), it is ideal to consult us 2-3 months before your departure.
-
Even if your departure is approaching, we will prioritize and create a vaccination plan to the extent possible, so please do not hesitate to consult us.
Vaccination Process
- WEB Reservation (Advance booking recommended to ensure vaccine availability)
- Medical Interview—Confirm medical history, allergies, medications, possibility of pregnancy, and travel plans.
- Doctor's Examination and Vaccination
