Chapel Pharmacy is a registered Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre on Chapel Lane, Farnborough. We give the Stamaril vaccine and issue your international certificate at the same visit.
Entry rules fall into two groups. Some countries require proof from all arriving travellers. Others only ask for it if you’ve recently visited a country with yellow fever.
Certificate required for all travellers (including those arriving from the UK):
Certificate required if you arrive from a country with a risk of transmission:
Travellers on multi-stop trips may need a yellow fever certificate, even if the destination country doesn’t require it. Countries such as Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Bolivia, and some areas of Argentina have risks. So, getting vaccinated is advised. Requirements can change quickly, so our health team checks the latest guidance with your itinerary. Please bring your flight details to your appointment.
The £80 includes the consultation, vaccine, and certificate – no extra fees. If you need additional travel vaccines, we will provide a full price before proceeding.
Schedule online or call us. Provide your travel details and vaccination records, including previous yellow fever certificates.
A pharmacist checks your itinerary and medical history. They confirm whether the vaccine is right for you and address any other health needs.
The injection takes seconds. Stay briefly afterward. Your certificate is complete and stamped; keep it with your passport.
Most people feel fine. Where side effects do happen, they usually appear between day five and day ten, because the vaccine is live and takes time to provoke a response.
Common and Short-Lived Effects:
Paracetamol helps if you feel achy or feverish. Contact us or call 111 if symptoms are severe, get worse after day ten, or last longer than a week.
Serious reactions to the yellow fever vaccine are uncommon. Under Patient Group Direction (PGD) rules, vaccination is excluded if the WHO doesn’t recommend it for your destination. It’s allowed for those over 60 only if the risk of infection is high.
The vaccine isn’t suitable for everyone. Pregnant or breastfeeding women cannot receive it, nor can those planning to conceive within 28 days. Travel to risk areas may warrant an exemption letter. Exclusions include babies under six months, severe egg or latex allergies, thymus issues, weakened immunity, acute febrile illness, or a family history of serious reactions.
Not every pharmacy can give this vaccine. We hold NaTHNaC registration, so the jab and certificate happen here on Chapel Lane.
Your signed and stamped ICVP is handed to you before you leave. No posting, no second visit, no waiting for paperwork.
Yellow fever vaccine has had supply problems nationally. We keep it in, so your appointment is not cancelled at short notice.
Two independent prescribers work here. If your trip needs antimalarials or other prescription-only medicines, we can supply them without a GP appointment.
typhoid, hepatitis A, rabies, tetanus, malaria tablets and altitude sickness medication are all available alongside your yellow fever jab.

Yes, from nine months of age. Babies aged six to nine months are only vaccinated in exceptional circumstances, and it is not given under six months.
The yellow fever vaccine cannot be given during pregnancy if you are planning to conceive within the next 28 days or if you are breastfeeding a baby under nine months. If travel to a risk area is unavoidable, we can discuss an exemption letter and whether a specialist assessment is appropriate.
Yes. Yellow fever can be given alongside most other travel vaccines on the same day, saving you a second trip before you fly. However, live vaccines such as MMR or dengue require a minimum four-week interval if not co-administered on the same day.
One dose usually gives lifelong protection for most travellers. However, a booster is advised for certain high-risk groups. This includes those vaccinated under two years old, pregnant individuals, people who are HIV-positive, those who are immunosuppressed, or anyone preparing for a bone marrow transplant.
We can issue a signed medical letter of exemption. Many border officials accept it, though acceptance is at their discretion, so carry it with your passport.
If we vaccinated you, we can reissue from our records. If another centre did, contact them, as we cannot certify a vaccination we did not give.
