Vaccinations
We strongly recommend that you consult a specialist travel doctor well in advance to get the latest information on what vaccinations to consider for Mongolia. There are no legally required vaccinations, but the following are standard for any developing country:
- Typhoid
- Tetanus
- Hepatitis A
- Polio
Rabies is present in Mongolia (as it is in the US and Europe) and some travellers do get vaccinated for it. Consult your doctor and don’t pat the dogs! See our Health and Safety FAQs for the risk from rabies.
The trip I made with Zavkhan Trekking this past September was more than the trip of a lifetime. I left a piece of my soul in Mongolia, and I’m already counting the years until I can return...
