There are no required inoculations for Mexico, but it's worth visiting your doctor at least four weeks before you leave to check that you are up-to-date with tetanus , typhoid and hepatitis A jabs.
Those travelling from the USA or Canada will have to pay for inoculations, available at any immunization centre or at most local clinics.
Most GPs in the UK have a travel surgery where you can get advice and certain vaccines on prescription, though they may not administer some of the less common immunizations. Travel clinics can be more expensive, but you won't need to make an appointment.
In Australia and New Zealand, vaccination centres are less expensive than doctors' surgeries. Most clinics will also sell travel-associated accessories, including mosquito nets and first-aid kits.
