Travel vaccines for French Polynesia - at a glance
NaTHNaC recommends Tetanus for most travellers to French Polynesia, with Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Rabies (Bat Lyssavirus) and Typhoid recommended for some travellers depending on itinerary. A Yellow Fever ICVP is required only if you have been in a YF risk country in the previous six days. Aqua Travel Clinic in West Hampstead is operated by Aqua Pharmacy (GPhC premises 1123406, owned by Naspram Pharma Limited) under Superintendent Pharmacist Sanjay Mukundkumar Patel (GPhC 2045157).
Tetanus, Diphtheria and Polio (Td/IPV)
The 10-year Td/IPV booster is the main vaccine consideration for French Polynesia. It keeps your Tetanus, Diphtheria and Polio cover current in one injection - it can be added to any Aqua consultation.
Rabies (Bat Lyssavirus)
In French Polynesia rabies risk is largely limited to bat exposure. Pre-exposure vaccination is considered for cavers, wildlife workers and children in cave areas. At Aqua we use the three-dose pre-exposure schedule on days 0, 7 and 21-28 (UK Green Book). Pharmacies cannot administer post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) - if you are bitten or scratched abroad, wash the wound thoroughly and go straight to A&E, NHS 111 or a local hospital.
Yellow Fever certificate (arrivals from risk countries)
French Polynesia does not have Yellow Fever transmission, but requires an ICVP on arrival if you have been in a Yellow Fever risk country in the previous six days (including short transit stays). Aqua is a NaTHNaC-designated Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre and issues the ICVP in-clinic on the day.
Hepatitis B
Three-dose course (0, 1, 6 months) recommended for longer stays, medical or dental procedures, tattoos, piercings and new sexual partners abroad. An accelerated schedule is available for shorter lead times.
