Why this vaccine matters
Yellow fever is a mosquito-borne disease found in Africa and South America. The vaccine protects your health and keeps your trip on track by meeting international entry rules.
- Your Yellow Card (ICVP) becomes valid 10 days after vaccination and lasts for life.
- Boosters are not needed for most travelers, except in certain high-risk situations.
- Immigration officers may deny entry without valid proof of vaccination.
Tip: Plan your vaccination at least two weeks before departure.
Quick country guide
Countries fall into three categories when it comes to yellow fever vaccination:
1. Required for entry
- Africa: Ghana, Uganda, Côte d’Ivoire, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Gabon, Sierra Leone, Togo, Benin, Cameroon, Burkina Faso
- Americas: French Guiana
Get vaccinated at least 10 days before arrival so your Yellow Card is valid.
2. Recommended due to local risk
- Examples: Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, northern Argentina, Panama, Paraguay, Suriname, Guyana
Recommended means there is ongoing transmission — protect yourself even if proof isn’t required.
3. Transit/layover rules
- Example: Flying from Miami to Nigeria via Brazil — Nigeria may require proof even if you wouldn’t need it direct from the U.S.
Layovers count. Always check the rules for your full route, not just your destination.
