I goto China 6 times a year. Only immunization I have ever had was Hep B. although that was for going to Indonesia.

Good luck and have fun.

Recommended if you are not up-to-date with routine shots such as, measles/mumps/rubella (MMR) vaccine, diphtheria/pertussis/tetanus (DPT) vaccine, etc.

Hepatitis A

Hepatitis B

Typhoid

Rabies

Japanese encephalitis

here you can also find symptoms for these diseases.

Welcome to China - my home country!

Currently, there are no required immunizations for entry to China. However, it is best to consult your physician or international health advisories from the US State Department services Bureau of Consular Affairs in Washington.
You can visit their Web site at: www.travel.state.gov/travel.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me through our website: www. jiasdreamtours.com

Visit your local vaccination clinic. They can tell you the recommended vaccinations based on your itinerary.

Hep B, yellow fever, travelers disease are a good start. None are required unless you are spending time in the bush for extended periods of time.
