Tajikistan
Tajikistan is a beautiful country located in Central Asia, bordered by Afghanistan, China, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan. It is known for its stunning mountain ranges, including the Pamir Mountains, which offer breathtaking views and opportunities for trekking and mountaineering. The country also boasts a rich cultural heritage, with ancient cities and historic sites such as the Hissar Fortress and the Ismaili Centre in Dushanbe. Visitors can experience traditional Tajik cuisine, which includes dishes such as plov and shashlik, and enjoy the warm hospitality of the local people. Tajikistan is a unique and off-the-beaten-path destination that offers a truly authentic travel experience.
Tajikistan Immunization Recommendations and Requirements
Before traveling, make sure you are up-to-date on all of your routine immunizations including influenza and COVID-19. Note that many vaccines that are now considered "routine" were not available until recent decades so you may not have received them at all, depending on your age and other factors.
Infants, 6 to 11 months old should receive one dose of MMR and Hepatitis A prior to visiting Tajikistan. This does not count toward routine childhood immunizations.
