If you're an adult, you won't need inoculations unless you have travelled through a yellow-fever endemic area, in which case you will need certification to prove that you have been inoculated when you arrive in South Africa. Tshwane is malaria-free, but should you visit the Kruger National Park, the Lowveld of Mpumalanga and Limpopo, and the northern regions of KwaZulu-Natal, it would be advisable to take precautions by taking malaria tablets, using insect repellents and wearing protective clothing. Consult your doctor or a specialist travel clinic for the latest advice concerning malaria prophylaxis.
Adults visiting South Africa won't need inoculations, but visitors who have been travelling through a yellow fever area must be vaccinated against yellow fever and, on arrival, must produce a certificate of proof of this vaccination. While Tshwane is free of Malaria, it is endemic to parts of the country and it is advisable that precautions be taken (eg drinking malaria tablets, using insect repellents and wearing protective clothing). It is also advisable to have vaccinations for both cholera and tetanus. We recommend that you contact your doctor or a specialist travel clinic for the latest advice on malaria prophylaxis. Medical insurance is always a good idea and is recommended as most private hospitals require some payment up front.
