International Immunization Cards
Travelling to any Caribbean, Latin American, African and Asian countries? Then make sure to carry your International Immunization Card with proof of the Yellow Fever vaccination.

Persons who are travelling to these countries are advised to visit their County Medical Offices of Health within TWO WEEKS prior to departure from Trinidad and Tobago with Proof of Travel and Proof of Yellow Fever Immunization. International Immunization Cards will be processed within two business days.
