Quieter than its neighbour, Lombok draws people for Kuta in the south, the trek up Rinjani and the boats across to the Gilis. Where you base yourself matters more here than it does on Bali.
Hepatitis A, hepatitis B, MMR and typhoid are advised for any Indonesian trip. Rabies is worth a conversation given the animals around the villages, Japanese encephalitis for a long rural stay, and malaria tablets depend on which part of the island you are staying in. Speaking to a doctor beforehand helps ensure you have the vaccinations you need for the islands you are visiting.
At Singapore Women's Clinic, we provide a range of travel vaccinations, preventive medication and travel health advice for solo travellers and families alike.

Checking Your Immunity Before Vaccination
If you were vaccinated as a child, or you think you have had the illness before, a blood test can check whether you are still protected before you book a vaccine. We can test immunity to hepatitis A, hepatitis B and measles. Where a result shows you are protected, the dose may not be needed. Results take a few days, so allow for that when you plan your appointments.

Malaria Prevention for Indonesia
Rural Lombok falls within the West Nusa Tenggara malaria area, though no transmission is reported on the Gili Islands. Where you are based on the island is what decides whether tablets apply.
Malaria may be present across eastern Indonesia, meaning Maluku, North Maluku, East Nusa Tenggara, Papua and West Papua, including Labuan Bajo and the Komodo Islands. Rural Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Sumatra and West Nusa Tenggara are also affected, with low transmission in rural Java. No transmission is reported in Jakarta or Ubud, or in the resort areas of Bali.
Malaria pills, also called malaria prophylaxis, do not stop you being bitten. They work by killing the parasite in your bloodstream before it has a chance to multiply and make you ill, which is why they are taken daily through the trip and for a period after you leave.
At Singapore Women’s Clinic, we provide malaria pills in addition to travel vaccinations. It is best to consult our doctor 4 to 6 weeks before you fly, so that any tablets can be matched to your route and to medicines you already take. A later appointment is still worth making, as the course itself is usually started only 2 days before you arrive.
Vaccination Certificate Requirements for Entry and Re-Entry
Whether you need a certificate depends on the countries you pass through or come from. Before you travel, check your full route against the current list of countries with a risk of yellow fever transmission published by Singapore's Immigration & Checkpoints Authority.
Entering Indonesia
No certificate is needed if you arrive directly from Singapore, or from any country without yellow fever risk.
It is required from age 9 months if you arrive from a country with risk.
Returning to Singapore
Singapore requires a yellow fever certificate if you have recently travelled to a country with yellow fever risk. It follows your route, not your destination, so it can apply even when the country you are visiting has no risk.
- Applies to all travellers, including Singapore residents, of any nationality.
- Includes airport transits of more than 12 hours in an affected country.
- Valid from 10 days after vaccination, then for life.
- Without a valid certificate you may be quarantined for six days under the Infectious Diseases Act, counted from the date you left the affected country.
- Exempt: Children aged one year and below; Travellers with a medical contraindication to the vaccine.
Travel Medical Kit
At Singapore Women’s Clinic, we also provide travel medical kits, curated by our doctors, to help you manage common travel issues such as diarrhoea, motion sickness, and minor injuries. Each kit is compact and cabin-friendly.
- $48 for the basic kit
- $68 for the kit with additional first aid items
No appointment is required. You may walk in to purchase the kit during clinic hours.
