How to replace vaccine yellow book in UK? - Open Book in Woman Hands Behind Yellow Wild Flowers

I'm an American citizen living in London. I have a yellow vaccine booklet that is originally from the US and is about 13 years old now, filled with all my requisite vaccinations, most importantly yellow fever.

However, the vaccine booklet has come separated and each page stands individually. This happened on my last trip to a country checking yellow fever vaccines, just before COVID, and I was warned by the immigration officer that I had better get it fixed as it is technically invalid in that state.

Is there a way to replace the vaccine booklet in the UK, despite it originating in America, without having to get re-vaccinated?



Best Answer

If it works in the UK like it does in the Netherlands, any doctor or clinic who can do vaccinations can give you a new one.

Of course they may not have the right stamps for the specific vaccines you had in the past, which might cause problems, but worth a try.

And of course do keep in mind that most vaccines are only valid for a limited period, so you might need some of them redone anyway.
