Why it matters abroad

Tetanus enters through cuts and wounds contaminated with soil, and medical care may be harder to reach on your trip. A few countries also ask long-stay visitors for proof of recent polio vaccination when they leave. Whether you need it depends on your itinerary, activities and health, and we confirm that at your consultation using the latest NaTHNaC guidance.
