Hi Sassy 👋🏻 - yes I got mine in 2015 here in the UK for my first visit to Ghana. Yes they check it each time I enter Kotoka. Im told its a lifetime inoculation (cant remember how much it cost) - I keep it permanently inside my passport with a rubber band lol
@steffiejoe google is your friend 😉 ‘African countries that requires Yellow Fever vaccination certificate Countries that require vaccination for all travellers older that 9 months or 1 year: Benin, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameron, Central African Republic, Congo, Côte d’lvoire, DRC, Gabon, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Liberia, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Niger, Togo. Countries that requires vaccination for travellers from countries with risk of yellow fever transmission or transit for 12 hours in those countries: Algeria, Botswana, Cabo Verde, Chad, Djibouti, Egypt, Ethiopia, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Lesotho, Libya, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritania, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, Papua New Guinea, Seychelles, Somalia, South Africa, Sudan, Swaziland, Tunisia, Uganda, United Republic of Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe.’
Hi Sassy Funke, I rarely comment on videos but I have to comment on this. My family are gifting my aunty a trip to South Africa for her 50th birthday. And your video has been an absolute life saver!!!!! She advised that the process was easy as we followed your explanation. Although the server was down, she waited and got the yellow fever vaccine and card today. Thank you so much, God bless you abundantly!
Detailed and very informative, I find this very useful Just to add, the office do not open on Saturdays and Sundays contrary to information on the port health online portal 👍👍👍👍
Wonderful clear advice thank you . Many countries have this minimum 10 day wait (the card isn't valid until 10 days have passed since the shot as this is the time for immunuty to build up.) I almost got caught out on that going to Ghana but fortunately I had just enough time. I can imagine so many people getting plane tickets or going to land border and not even knowing the Yellow fever certificate is needed.
You did better than a medical facility and a medical doctor in Nigeria from whom I was trying to obtain this information. It's not unusual in Nigeria for professionals not to have general basic knowledge, including knowledge about their own profession. I guess it has something to do with the substandard education system in Nigeria that's responsible for yearly cranking out poorly educated graduates. In addition, businesses are so unprofessional, they'll hire a staff and dump them to manage or be a part of a team without prior job training.
Thanks for the video. Is the vaccination for yellow fever and card acquisition not done in every State in Nigeria? You could have mentioned that since Nigeria is big, moving from another State to Lagos for yellow fever vaccine would probably not be cost-effective. I did mine many years ago (maybe 8yrs ago) but it was entirely manual. Can't tell if people who walk straight to hospitals/epidemiology centres and get the vaccine are duly recorded like those who register online before the vaccine @SassyFunke
Hey Funke, I believe you need to equalize your sound when editing your videos. The sound comes out louder in one ear than the other. This is the 3rd time I’m noticing this. Great informations by the way.
Yet today I went to the Isolo General Hospital and he told me he was going to do my yellow card that I am going to pass tomorrow. Please I don't understand maybe he wants to give me false documents? Please need advice it's my first time to travel thank you very much
Thank you Funke! I wish it was so easy for me. Followed every step until I got to the building and they said that the yellow fever cards have finished 😂
Hi, thanks for the information. Do you still have to pay for the yellow fever vaccine at the Port Service office after making the payment online, or does the payment cover both the vaccine and the e-yellow card?
SASSY FUNKE, please, i have it and i want to renew my passport soon, do I need a new one or the former one can serve. this is because they said it is digital and all my information is with them
It’s crazy… they say here in the US when I go to the travel vaccine clinic that it’s not required for those who do not come from a place where yellow fever is. So they say it’s not required for US travelers. However, it helps protect against yellow fever ofcourse so you can get it. But I hate the way the Nigerian airport will make you pay for something or bribe us like it’s required when it’s not. But happy I got mine and my baby, but they should make a way of not making it hard for those if they didn’t know…
While checking in to fly back to u.s. l was given the card at the counter to fill b4 going through the immigration. Not sure if it's same card ur talking about. Never paid anything for it.
Oh no thats just a departure card for immigration (its also yellow in color). This is proof of a vaccinated that you get when injected with the vaccine.
Hi Sassy, Hope you are doing well. I am traveling to Nigeria from the United Kingdom this month. Do they check the Yellow fever card at Lagos airport although I have booked my appointment for the vaccine at your recommended place near the Airport? Please reply.
True, they sell the fake one at the airport terminal and don’t give you the vaccine. So one has to go to the right center, pay , get the vaccine, and get the original.
They are just taking a piss. Nija route is extremely profitable, and they are milking on it. Nigeria has a driving force that we don't even realise ourselves, and I think that if we could unite and boycott travelling for a year or two, maybe they would have a rethink. It's very annoying.
Have you ever needed a Yellow Fever Card before for your travels? Did anyone actually check it? Let me know your experiences below

It it mandatory to get this vaccine?

Good morning, thank you for this detailed information.

While checking in to fly back to u.s. l was given the card at the counter to fill b4 going through the immigration. Not sure if it's same card ur talking about. Never paid anything for it.
Oh no thats just a departure card for immigration (its also yellow in color). This is proof of a vaccinated that you get when injected with the vaccine.
@@SassyFunke ok thanks 😊
Do I need a Yellow Fever Vax for travel to Nigeria from US ?
Need to know also
How long does it Take
I have been vacinated more than 40yrs,do l still need to be vacinated again.?.
I was told its considered a lifetime thing, perhaps best check though
Is it required for someone from the us to take the yellow vaccine to go to nigeria
Thanks for the video. Very useful. www.......... Didn't quite get it
Apart from Lagos, are there centres in other states where somebody can get it?
Yes go to any immigration office dey hv dere own office dere
Hello Sassy do I need yellow fever vaccine when leaving Nigeria to go back to US?
No you don't
@@SassyFunke thank you 🙂
I am 66yrs and my wife is 64 do we need the yellow fever jab? Thanks
Yes everyone does except you have some underlying conditions
Hi Sassy, Hope you are doing well. I am traveling to Nigeria from the United Kingdom this month. Do they check the Yellow fever card at Lagos airport although I have booked my appointment for the vaccine at your recommended place near the Airport? Please reply.
Hello, So was it checked at the Lagos airport?
But they selling this same card at the airport at 3500 naira
Its FAKE and it will be rejected. Don't buy it.
True, they sell the fake one at the airport terminal and don’t give you the vaccine.
So one has to go to the right center, pay , get the vaccine, and get the original.
I'm living in Ibadan one man told me that the yellow fever card is 55k in Ibadan state
WOW! Thats theft, definitely not the official price
Is there a age bracket?
On the site you can’t enter a date earlier than 2012 as date of birth
That’s very odd. As there is no age bracket
Pick 2012 and for some reason, earlier dates will show up. Pick the earliest and more will appear.
Isn’t this for first timers?
No for everyone
Yellow fever
They are just taking a piss. Nija route is extremely profitable, and they are milking on it. Nigeria has a driving force that we don't even realise ourselves, and I think that if we could unite and boycott travelling for a year or two, maybe they would have a rethink. It's very annoying.
Imagine being asked to pay as much as 7k naira.
It really is informative. Thank you!
Absolutely informative. Thanks for the guide🎉
Glad it was helpful!
