In Hong Kong, where you go depends on the vaccine and your eligibility.
Children's vaccines
Under the Hong Kong Childhood Immunisation Programme, children aged 0 to 5 are vaccinated at Maternal and Child Health Centres, and primary-school children are vaccinated at school by the Department of Health's School Immunisation Teams. The HPV vaccine is also delivered to Primary 5 and 6 girls through the school programme.
Influenza: check the group and venue
Depending on your group and programme conditions, check these influenza service routes:
- VSS-enrolled private doctors: check eligibility, the exact vaccine and any extra fee; private services are not automatically free.
- District Health Centres/Expresses: use the group-specific routes on the official CHP page.
- Public follow-up or antenatal clinics, MCHCs and school outreach: each has group, document and appointment conditions.
Vaccination Subsidy Scheme (VSS)
A participating private doctor checks your eligibility for that vaccine and explains the actual fee. Some charge no extra; others charge an additional amount. Use the official provider information and confirm with the clinic.
Travel vaccines
Some travel-related vaccines, such as yellow fever, must be given at the Department of Health's Travel Health Centres. The yellow fever vaccine is only available at designated centres.
Before you go
Different sites offer different vaccines and service hours. Before you go, confirm the site has the vaccine you need and whether you need an appointment (see "Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?").
Check COVID-19 service availability separately
Service check, 17 October 2026: CHP still reports a temporary suspension of the government COVID-19 vaccination service after the LP.8.1 supply expired. An expected resumption in the fourth quarter is not a confirmed reopening date. Check the official notice and provider for current service, formulation and supply.
