Angola Visa yellow fever certificate and travel information
Angola requires visitors to have a valid yellow fever vaccination certificate upon entry into the country. This requirement is in place to prevent the spread of yellow fever, a viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes. Yellow fever vaccination essential for Angola, WHO reminds travellers
Vaccination the key prevention measure
More than 5 million people have been vaccinated against yellow fever in this campaign. Vaccination is the single most important measure for preventing yellow fever. The vaccine is safe and affordable and a single dose provides life-long immunity against the disease.
Before travelling to Angola travellers should be vaccinated
Travellers to and from countries where yellow fever occurs should be vaccinated and should carry their certificate of vaccination when travelling – this may be inspected by border authorities on arrival. Here, a member of the vaccination team fills in a certificate for this woman and her children who have just been vaccinated.
WHO advice
WHO urges Members States especially those where the establishment of a local cycle of transmission is possible (i.e., where the Aedes mosquitoes are present) to strengthen the control of immunization status of travellers to all potentially endemic areas and the surveillance of potential YF cases.
In the context of an ongoing YF outbreak in Angola, special attention should also be placed on travellers returning from Angola and other potentially endemic areas. Travellers, particularly those arriving in Asia from Africa or Latin America should always have a certificate of YF vaccination. If there are medical grounds for not getting vaccinated, the International Health Regulations (2005) state that this must be certified by the appropriate authorities.
WHO does not recommend any restriction of travel and trade to Angola based on the current information available.
