Iran is a specialist cultural destination - Tehran, Isfahan, Shiraz, Yazd and Persepolis - plus significant VFR travel. Vaccine needs are moderate and mainly focused on Hepatitis A, Typhoid and Rabies for rural travel. NaTHNaC recommends Hepatitis A and Tetanus for most travellers to Iran, with Cholera, Hepatitis B, Rabies and Typhoid recommended for some travellers depending on itinerary. A Polio certificate can be required for stays over four weeks in a polio-transmission area. Aqua Travel Clinic in West Hampstead is operated by Aqua Pharmacy (GPhC-registered premises 1123406, owned by Naspram Pharma Limited) under the Superintendent Pharmacist at Aqua Pharmacy. We are a NaTHNaC-designated Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre and can usually fit you in same-week for Iran travel vaccines. Book online in 60 seconds.

Travel vaccines for Iran - at a glance
Hepatitis A
Standard for Iran travel. Food and water route. One dose protects for around 12 months; a booster extends cover to around 25 years.
Rabies
NaTHNaC recommends pre-exposure rabies vaccination for some travellers to Iran - particularly rural trips, longer stays, backpackers, cyclists, children, VFR travellers and anyone likely to have close animal contact. At Aqua we use the three-dose pre-exposure schedule on days 0, 7 and 21-28 (UK Green Book standard). 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 for post-exposure treatment.
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.
Cholera (Dukoral)
An oral two-dose vaccine considered for prolonged rural, humanitarian or outbreak-area travel. It also provides useful cover against some travellers' diarrhoea.
Malaria
Malaria risk varies by region in Iran. We check your itinerary against NaTHNaC and either prescribe atovaquone/proguanil, doxycycline or mefloquine for higher-risk areas, or confirm you do not need cover. Bite avoidance advice (DEET, long sleeves at dawn and dusk) is included.
