| A1 Appendix
1:
Exemption
from
the
requirement
for
an
International
Certificate
of
Vaccination
|
Where
a
physician
advises
that
an
adult,
or
infant,
should
not
be
vaccinated
on
medical
grounds
this
should
be
written
on
headed
writing
paper
which
will
be
taken
into
consideration
by
the
port
health
authorities
in
the
destination
country.
The
advice
has
often
been
given
to
check
the
acceptability
with
the
UK
Embassy
or
High
Commission
of
that
country,
although
in
practice
not
all
Embassies
are
able
to
guarantee
the
attitude
of
individual
port
health
officials.
However
if
the
Embassy
provides
a
letter
accepting
the
exemption
certificate
this
could
be
helpful
on
entry.
