Long-lasting protection with a straightforward two-dose course
Hepatitis A is a contagious liver infection, spread through contaminated food or water, or close contact with someone who's infected. It's more common across South Asia, Southeast Asia, Africa, and Central and South America. The vaccine is given as an injection into the upper arm — one dose first, then a booster 6 to 12 months later for protection lasting up to 25 years.
One dose gives around a year of protection; the second dose extends this to up to 25 years.
Have your first dose at least 2 weeks before travel so your body has time to respond.
We can book the age-appropriate vaccine for both adults and children — choose the calendar that suits you below.
A liver infection linked to contaminated food and water
Caused by the hepatitis A virus, spread through contaminated food, water or close contact.
Symptoms include fever, tiredness, vomiting, dark urine and yellowing of the skin or eyes.
More common across South Asia, Southeast Asia, Africa, and Central and South America.
A two-dose vaccine course gives strong, long-lasting protection.
Vaccination is one dose after your first jab lowers your risk substantially, but it's still worth being careful with food, water and hand hygiene while travelling — especially before your second dose.
Recommended for travellers to higher-risk regions, of any age
Suitable for both adults and children, making it easy to protect the whole family before a trip.
Worth prioritising if you eat street food, stay in local accommodation, or travel to the same regions often.
