My wife does not have any idea what vaccinations she has, nor does she know how to get ahold of her vaccination records. She is from the Philippines, but has been living in Thailand for the past 4 years. So she will be going to the Embassy in Bangkok for her interview. Likewise she will be going to a Hospital in Bangkok for her medical.

I understand they will likely issue a Titer test to see what she has been vaccinated against. What are the required vaccines? Do they administer the vaccines at the Medical examination? How much are these vaccines?

My husband didn't have his records so he got them all redone (at least most of them) prior to the medical exam. The test and vaccines would've been far more expensive since he was able to go to his UK doctor and get most for free.

My wife was born at a time in China where they did not keep records. So she retook the ones required for an adult at the medical exam which are less than those needed for a child. Not a big problem.

 

My stepson who was just approved also had some done even though he had records. At the medical exam he was given a flu shot, chicken pox vaccine and MMR vaccine. He would have been allowed to take them in the US but it was less expensive to do so in China.

Most of the time they'll only get 2 or 3 shots, even if you do not have any records. Most of the immunizations are not applicable to adults. 

 

She will likely receive Tetanus, MMR, and Influenza. If she has not had chicken pox, they may also give Varicella.
