Islas de Cabo Verde
Health Health 2 2 No 1 3 3 4 N/A Healthcare Health insurance, including emergency repatriation cover, is advised, although in-patient treatment is free in general wards on presentation of a passport. Treatment is private and expensive on the smaller islands. Note 1
Following WHO guidelines issued in 1973, a cholera vaccination certificate is not a condition of entry to Cape Verde. However, cholera is a risk in this country and precautions could be considered. Up-to-date advice should be sought before deciding whether these precautions should include vaccination as medical opinion is divided over its effectiveness. For more information, see the Health appendix.

2
Yellow Fever is endemic. A certificate of vaccination is required if travelling from other countries in the endemic zone.

3
Typhoid fever is widespread and vaccination may be necessary. Polio vaccination may also be advised.

4
There is a limited risk of malaria from September to November on São Tiago Island.
