Destination vaccine checklist

Which Travel Vaccines Do I Need for Bali?

For Bali, UK travellers commonly check routine boosters, hepatitis A and typhoid. Rabies risk, hepatitis B and Japanese encephalitis depend on activities, length of stay and whether travel extends beyond Bali to other parts of Indonesia.

Last updated: 2026-05-11. Check current destination rules before booking.

Important

This is a planning checklist, not personal medical advice. A travel clinic should check your exact itinerary, dates, medical history, previous vaccines and transit countries.

Usually discussed first

  • Routine UK vaccines and boosters
  • Hepatitis A
  • Typhoid
  • Tetanus/diphtheria/polio booster if due

May depend on your itinerary

  • Rabies for animal exposure risk
  • Hepatitis B for longer-stay or exposure risk
  • Japanese encephalitis for longer rural exposure
  • Malaria tablets if travelling to higher-risk areas outside Bali

Yellow fever and malaria checks

Yellow fever

Indonesia may require yellow fever proof if arriving from a country with yellow fever transmission risk; direct UK-to-Bali travellers should still check current entry rules.

Malaria tablets

Malaria advice is area-specific. Ask the clinic whether tablets are needed for your exact route and how many tablets are required for the trip length.
