Vaccinations Needed in Amsterdam consulate(k1)?

[CHT 4]

Hi dear people,

is it required to have vaccinations ready before the interview K1?

we are not there yet but want to get prepared in order to minimize the processing time.

i found a list of vaccinations on the US state government as below,

• Hepatitis A
• Hepatitis B
• Influenza
• Influenza type b (Hib)
• Measles
• Meningococcal
• Mumps
• Pneumococcal
• Pertussis
• Polio
• Rotavirus
• Rubella
• Tetanus and diphtheria toxoids
• Varicella

I do not have any records of vaccinations but I did get varicella when i was little but i do not have any proof. Do I need to get them all ?

feels quite painful as even imagining it...

Thank you all!

thank you so much Pitaya, but I am still in doubt that whether I need to get all the vaccinations.

I've read some posts on this forum and it is recommended to do it with GP first. BUT they only talk about two vaccinations.

I am wondering if anyone has this experience before?

thanks!

Get your doctor to take a blood test to see which you have had and get it on paper from him.

I had all mine from when I was a child but Hep A + B and flu wasn't needed.

Obtaining serum antibody titers can certainly determine your level of immunity. A word of caution: Depending on medical insurance coverage, sometimes it is cheaper to get the vaccination than get the lab test done.

Well we have free doctors here so I don't think of the costs

I don't think it'll be much in the Nederlands either and probably cheaper then getting all the shots again.
