Our GPhC-registered pharmacists assess your specific itinerary and medical history to create a personalised vaccination plan tailored to your trip.
Ensure these are up to date before travel
Essential routine vaccine protecting against three serious viral infections. Most UK adults received this as children but check your records.
A combined booster vaccine recommended every 10 years for travellers. Protects against three potentially fatal diseases.
Highly recommended for Thailand. Spread through contaminated food and water, Hepatitis A is common in Southeast Asia. Provides long-term immunity.
Strongly advised depending on your itinerary
Recommended for longer stays or if you may be exposed to blood or body fluids. Particularly important for adventure travellers and those visiting rural areas.
Common in areas with poor sanitation. Spread through contaminated food and water. Essential if you plan to eat street food or travel outside major tourist areas.
Recommended if visiting rural areas, especially rice-growing regions, or staying for extended periods. Spread by mosquitoes and can cause serious neurological illness.
Strongly recommended for adventure travellers, cyclists, and those visiting remote areas. Stray dogs and monkeys are common in Thailand and rabies is present.
May be mandatory depending on your route
Required if arriving from a country with risk of Yellow Fever transmission. Thailand requires a certificate if travelling from or transiting through a country with Yellow Fever risk. Your pharmacist will advise based on your specific itinerary.
Street food, floating markets, and tropical adventures — protecting your health means enjoying Thailand to the fullest
Understanding potential health risks helps you prepare properly. Our pharmacists will assess your specific itinerary and activities to provide tailored advice.
Dengue fever is widespread throughout Thailand, including urban areas like Bangkok. While malaria risk is low in most tourist destinations, it remains a concern in rural and border regions. Use DEET-based repellents and wear long sleeves during dawn and dusk. Dengue-carrying mosquitoes bite during the day.
Travellers' diarrhoea is common. Drink bottled water only, avoid ice from unknown sources, and be cautious with street food—choose busy stalls with fresh preparation. Typhoid and Hepatitis A are real risks from contaminated food and water, making vaccination essential before your trip.
Risk is higher in rural and agricultural areas, particularly rice-growing regions. The virus is spread by mosquitoes and can cause serious brain inflammation. Vaccination is recommended for travellers spending extended time in rural Thailand or visiting during the rainy season (May–October).
Stray dogs and monkeys are common throughout Thailand, including temple grounds and tourist areas. Rabies is fatal once symptoms appear. Pre-exposure vaccination is strongly recommended, particularly for adventure travellers, cyclists, and families with children.
While most tourist areas in Thailand—including Bangkok, Phuket, Chiang Mai, Pattaya, and Koh Samui—have low malaria risk, certain rural and border regions require antimalarial medication. Our pharmacists will assess your specific itinerary and recommend appropriate protection to keep you safe throughout your trip.
Border regions with Myanmar, Cambodia, and Laos carry the highest malaria risk. Rural forested areas in Kanchanaburi, Tak, and Trat provinces also require precautions. Most popular beach and city destinations are malaria-free.
We prescribe Malarone (atovaquone/proguanil), Doxycycline, and Mefloquine. Our pharmacists will recommend the most suitable option based on your health, activities, and duration of stay. All options available in stock at both clinics.
Use DEET 50% insect repellent on exposed skin. Wear light-coloured long sleeves and trousers at dawn/dusk. Sleep under insecticide-treated mosquito nets in rural areas. We stock premium DEET repellents at both clinics.

Best timing for multi-dose vaccines like Hepatitis B and Japanese Encephalitis. Allows your body to develop full immunity before departure. Rabies pre-exposure course can be completed in this timeframe.
Still time for single-dose vaccines (Hepatitis A, Typhoid) and accelerated courses. Antimalarial medication can be prescribed. First doses of multi-dose courses can begin.
Don't skip it! Many vaccines provide rapid protection. Hepatitis A and Typhoid can be given same-day. Antimalarial tablets available immediately. Some protection is always better than none.

While no vaccinations are legally mandatory for UK travellers entering Thailand directly, several are strongly recommended by the NHS and WHO. Hepatitis A and Typhoid vaccinations are considered essential for all travellers. Additional vaccines like Hepatitis B, Japanese Encephalitis, and Rabies are recommended based on your activities and itinerary. Our pharmacists will assess your specific plans and advise accordingly.
Individual vaccines range from £35–£95 per dose. Our Essential Thailand Package starts from £120 (Hepatitis A + Typhoid + consultation), and the Comprehensive Package from £280 (including Hep A&B, Typhoid, Japanese Encephalitis + consultation). All prices include expert consultation and administration. We offer competitive pricing with package discounts to make travel health affordable.
Yes! We offer same-day appointments at both our clinics. While 6–8 weeks before departure is ideal, most single-dose vaccines like Hepatitis A and Typhoid can be given right up until your departure date and still offer significant protection. Walk-ins are welcome, or call ahead to guarantee your slot.
A Yellow Fever certificate is required if you are arriving in Thailand from or transiting through a country with risk of Yellow Fever transmission. It is not required for travellers flying directly from the UK. Your pharmacist will confirm whether you need the vaccine and certificate based on your specific itinerary and routing.
Malaria risk in Thailand is concentrated in rural, forested border areas—particularly along the borders with Myanmar (Burma), Cambodia, and Laos. Provinces like Tak, Kanchanaburi, Mae Hong Son, and Trat have documented cases. Major tourist destinations including Bangkok, Chiang Mai city, Phuket, Koh Samui, and Pattaya are generally considered malaria-free. Our pharmacists will assess your specific itinerary.
Ideally 6–8 weeks before departure for full vaccine courses. However, many single-dose vaccines can be given 2–4 weeks before travel. Even last-minute travellers benefit from same-day single-dose vaccines. Hepatitis B requires 3 doses over 21 days (accelerated schedule), and Japanese Encephalitis needs 2 doses 28 days apart. Book as early as possible, but don't delay—coming late is always better than not coming at all.
