Routine Booster Vaccinations
Diphtheria, Tetanus & Polio Vaccine UK Booster for Travel (Td/IPV)
Ensure your protection is up to date with the combined Diphtheria, Tetanus, and Polio booster vaccine (Td/IPV). This crucial injection is often required for travel to regions where these diseases are still prevalent, especially if your last dose was over 10 years ago.

Get Your Diphtheria, Tetanus, and Polio Booster for International Travel
While routinely given in childhood, a booster dose of the Td/IPV vaccine is essential for many UK adults travelling internationally. It prevents severe, potentially life-threatening bacterial and viral infections. Check if you are due a booster before you fly.
Vaccination Overview
What Your DTP Travel Booster Appointment Includes
Our service provides the combined vaccine (Td/IPV) and full travel health compliance:
- A medical history review to confirm your routine vaccination schedule is current.
- Assessment to determine if a booster is required (typically if the last dose was over 10 years ago).
- Administration of the Td/IPV single-dose booster injection (protection against Diphtheria, Tetanus, and Polio).
- Advice on risk areas for each disease, particularly Polio risk countries (e.g., Pakistan, Afghanistan).
- Documentation of your new immunisation status for your medical records.
The Td/IPV booster is the simplest way to update three major protections at once.
Patient Suitability
Who Needs the Diphtheria, Tetanus & Polio Travel Booster
This combined booster is crucial for:**
- Travellers whose last DTP booster was more than 10 years ago.
- Anyone visiting regions where Polio is or has recently been a risk (e.g., specific parts of Asia, Africa).
- Individuals travelling to areas where access to medical treatment is limited (Tetanus risk is high with injury).
- Those who plan activities that increase Tetanus risk, such as trekking, working with soil, or extreme sports.
- Travellers visiting countries where Diphtheria is still widespread (parts of Eastern Europe, Asia, Africa).
Ensure your protection is current to prevent severe bacterial and viral complications abroad.
