Uganda: Required Vaccination

Yellow Fever

Entry requirements

A Yellow Fever vaccination certificate is required for all travellers 1 year of age and older.

The vaccination requirement is imposed by this country for protection against Yellow Fever since the principal mosquito vector Aedes aegypti is present in its territory.

Recommendations for all travellers

For their protection, vaccination is recommended for children 9 months of age and older since this country is in the Yellow Fever endemic zone.


Travel notice

Countries may change their vaccination requirements without notice and in some instances border agents use their discretion to deny entry despite the officially stated requirements.

If there is risk of Yellow Fever at your destination, whether vaccination is required for entry or not, be prepared to show a certificate of vaccination or a waiver stating the medical reasons for not being vaccinated.
