The Pasteur Institute recommends being up to date with the French vaccination schedule before a stay in Vietnam.
The hepatitis A vaccine is particularly recommended. Depending on the conditions of your stay, other vaccinations may be considered, including:
- hepatitis B;
- typhoid;
- rabies;
- Japanese encephalitis.
These recommendations depend heavily on your place of residence, the type of stay, and your activities.
