As of 1/3/2023

Dear patients and travelers, FFP2 masks are still mandatory in our outpatient clinic. Thank you for your understanding

An appointment can be booked online via our booking system. Please note the number of persons per appointment. If an additional vaccination appointment is necessary after a consultation, please book a follow-up vaccination appointment separately for each person to be vaccinated. 
Alternatively, you can make an appointment by email or by phone: 030/ 450 565 712; 08:00-15:00. Unfortunately, a travel consultation by phone or email is not offered.

No. Please be advised that a consultation without an appointment is not possible.

No. Please consider that it is not possible to provide travel advice by phone.

There are consulting appointments for a total of 1-2 people and for 3-5 people. You can respectively bring additional people according to the number booked.

You can cancel your reserved appointment via the cancel link in the email you received as confirmation. Alternatively, you can also send an email to tropeninstitut(at)charite.de.

Yes. If vaccinations are necessary, they can be administered on site during the consultation appointment. Please do not forget your certificate of vaccination!

No. Please understand that due to legal reasons, a medical consultation is mandatory before a vaccination in our institute in order to discuss the exact indications and side effects.

Since some vaccines (for example rabies) need to be vaccinated more frequently, a consultation 6-8 weeks before the trip is useful. The earlier the better. For some important travel vaccinations (for example Hepatitis A), a vaccination protection can be built up even at short notice. Therefore, you should come to us for a consultation "better late than never".

If a yellow fever vaccination is required, it is recommended that it be administered at least 10 days prior to departure to allow sufficient time for the vaccine to have effect. A yellow fever vaccination becomes officially valid after 10 days with regard to possible regulations in international travel.

No, we have all standard vaccines on site.

No. We are not authorized to sell vaccines. So we can not provide you with vaccines. However, all vaccines that we have in stock can be vaccinated right in our clinic.

Yes. We advise and administer travel vaccinations for all ages. However, please note that we do not stock all standard vaccines for infants and young children.

Yes. You can book a vaccination consultation and get vaccinated even without health insurance. Travel consultations and vaccinations need to be paid privately. You will receive an invoice and a receipt that you can submit to your health insurance provider.

There are many health insurance companies that reimburse the costs for travel vaccinations, consultation fees and malaria prophylaxis. However, we cannot guarantee whether and to which amount your health insurance company will contribute to the costs. For detailed informations please contact your health insurance in advance.
