Airport Health Organization, Mumbai Yellow fever vaccination center

Visited here on 8th Sept 2023 here for the yellow fever shot. DO NOT FORGET TO TAKE PEN, PASSPORT and HARD CASH !

Was a bit terrified reading some reviews saying that people queue up from 6AM. But some people have said that there's no need but it's good to aim to reach by 8:30AM.

My initial plan was to reach by 8:30AM, but I actual ended up reaching by 9:10AM. There was no queue outside, a guard sitting at the cabin asked if I had my passport, I showed it to him and he gave me a form with my token written on it. I was number 51 despite reaching post 9AM, my luck maybe who knows.

Was directed to sit in a waiting room at the ground floor, filled in basic health details, allergens etc. And passport details.

After a while they started calling people onto the first floor for billing, checked my details, did not see an option to swipe or pay online. Although I did not ask either, there might be an option. I had taken cash so paid that got my receipt and the yellow card.

We were sent down again where we waited and filled out details on the yellow card aka the certificate. Make sure it's stamped with the right date, some people's cards weren't stamped they went back and got it stamped.

Then there was some more waiting as people were processed in batches of 10, the staff is very friendly and helpful guides you whenever asked details.

Got my shot around 11:20 my yellow card went for further processing as I waited for any sever reaction. Got the card duly signed stamped and by 11:30 I was done.

Note - validity starts from 10 days from when you got the shot, so plan your travel accordingly!

Overall smooth experience.

Largest center for Yellow Vaccination & Polio in Mumbai. Everything is systematic, Nice experience, though I reached at 8 AM & therefore when token given got 125. It took almost 1 AM to get the vaccine & wait 30 minutes for any kind of post vaccine symptoms and for the Yellow Card. Everyday more than 200 doses they give.

People start to queue right from 6 am outside the gate. We reached at 7 am and already 61 people were present in the line. They had 170 doses of Yellow fever available on the day I visited 5/7/2023. You will have to wait outside for around 2-3 hrs as the main gates open at 8:30 am sharp. Then you get a token nhmber on the form and get inside where seating are available. I got my dose done at 11:30 am. Also parking is available inside after 9 am.
Got the yellow fever dose at 300 rupees and Polio dose free of cost.

Service at this center is very good.

I visited this center on 3rd May 2023. I reached there at 7:45 AM and my serial number was 94.

Entry started at 09:00 am and I got the entry around 9.45 AM. One person came at 10 AM and he also got the entry around 10:20 AM and his token number was 178. The gate closed once all people were assigned token numbers. There were approx. 200 peoples on that day.

People are arriving early, like from 6 am to avoid queue but as per me not worth it. Because people coming around 10 AM are also getting entries in 15-20 minutes.

Vaccination is done only on Wednesday & Friday.

Passport is mandatory for all.

Persons above 60 years needs to submit medical fitness certificate.

Take a pen, as you have to fill the consent form and the Yellow fever card.

Charges - Rs 300 (in cash)

I visited this place on 19th April 2023 and the yellow fever vaccine & polio doses were available here.

Polio doses are only available to travellers who are having travel proofs along with them such as flight ticket, visa etc.

This place generally administered 70 doses/day as per its official website info but if they have vaccines available with them they manage it till 200-250. Again its totally depend upon the availability of vaccines at this center.

They operate on Wednesday and friday only and closed on public holidays.
Registration starts @10am.
Vaccination starts @12pm.
I will suggest to be here early morning as even I reached here @7am and i was 68th in the queue. 😅

Center is well managed and staff is cooperative. They generally starts the registration around 10 am but if the crowd is huge then they even start the process early.

In Mumbai only this vaccination centre is open. Only Wednesday and Thursday. But you have to come in early morning for number line. I come in early morning by 4:30 Am. And they give indigo staff vaccination without line this is not fair because lots of people come by early morning. Overall experience is good
