Hajj and Umrah Travel Vaccination Clinic
Protect Yourself with the Meningococcal ACWY Vaccine for Hajj and Umrah
At VSM Pharmacy, we understand the importance of staying healthy during your spiritual journey to Mecca for Hajj or Umrah. That’s why we offer the essential meningococcal ACWY vaccine, a requirement for all pilgrims traveling to Saudi Arabia.
Why Get Vaccinated?
Meningitis is a serious infection that can cause severe brain damage or even death if left untreated. During the Hajj season, millions of pilgrims from around the world gather in close proximity, increasing the risk of meningococcal disease outbreaks. To protect pilgrims, Saudi Arabia has made the meningococcal ACWY vaccine mandatory for entry since 2002.
Are Any Other Vaccines Recommended?
Meningitis is mandatory to travel to Saudi Arabia but some adtional vaccines are also recommended such as:
- COVID-19
- Diphteria, Tetanus and Polio (DTP)
- Measle, Mups and Rubella (MMR)
- Seasonal Influenza
You may need a booster of polio and tetanus if you haven’t had one within the last 10 years.
For more information on the recommended vaccinations, please visit Fit for Travel or visit the Saudia Arabia Ministry of Health website.
Our Vaccination Service
At VSM Pharmacy, we provide the meningococcal ACWY vaccine recommended for Hajj and Umrah pilgrims. These conjugate vaccines offer long-lasting protection against four strains of meningococcal bacteria (A, C, W, and Y).
We recommend booking your appointment 6-8 weeks before your travel to avoid the last-minute rush. The vaccine must be administered at least 10 days before your arrival in Saudi Arabia, as per their rules.
If you already have an Internal Certificate of Vaccination or Prophilaxis, please bring it with you during your appointment so we can record your vaccination alongside your vaccine history. Upon vaccination, we will provide you with a certificate of vaccination, which is required for entry into Saudi Arabia. Please make sure that the details you provide match those on your passport.
Stay Safe, Stay Healthy
Don’t let meningitis ruin your spiritual journey. Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated at VSM Pharmacy. Our experienced pharmacists will ensure you receive the necessary protection and documentation for a safe and memorable Hajj or Umrah experience.

What do our customers say?

The local private hospital wanted to charge over £800 ( for a pre 'operation' assessment, the operation, and the follow up appointment ).
I saw VSM advertised and we thought we would try it.
The pharmacist looked at the skin tag and said yes it was suitable for cryotherapy. She cleaned my mothers face, and 'sprayed' the skin tag twice. She said it should drop off in about a week.
After a week, the skin tag has now completely gone, a slight pink mark where it was, and I am sure that will heal in the coming weeks.
This was all painless, straight forward, professional and for less than 10% of the cost of the private hospital.
We are all delighted with how easy it all was, and would recommend VSM to anyone wondering if they need a skin tag or mole removing. Thank you
Looking forward to not scratching any more and to be able to use deodorant, without irritation. Wish I had done this years ago.
Thank you so much. This will make my life so much better. Thanks to all at VSM Frimley.
Keep up the good work.
Appointment was easy to book online with an automated reminder. Great!
Kind regards

Removal of small amounts of wax from both ears.
The level of service was excellent.
The pharmacist was very helpful and reassurin
-Promptly served
-I was clearly explained that I did not need to do both ears, as one was very clean (a photograph was shown to me where I could see my left ear's ear drum)
-The lady was thorough and showed me the 'after' pictures of my right ear once she had finished
I thoroughly recommend using VSM Pharmacy for getting your ears cleaned of wax
If I had to really nit pick, I would suggest that the email which is sent out as confirmation of booking could include a recommendation on using some ear drops to soften the wax for easy cleaning, before the appointment. I was luckily not affected, and my wax came out easy.
Couldn’t feel a thing when the needle went through my arm 👏
I was in and out very quickly and the best thing is..... I CAN HEAR AGAIN.
Hopefully I won't need it again but if I do I'd definitely return here.
Highly recommend flue jab done for another year great service
In fact, we agree that from now on, the lady deserves to be respectfully referred to as "Jabber Julie".
Yours, Sylvia & Richard Manning.

The other staff I spoke to were also friendly and professional.
In November after I had a cold during a holiday I suffered painful ear pressure on the return flight. As the symptons were similar to those in August I went back to VSM. They confirmed there was very little wax in the ear and that it was simply my cold giving me ear pressure problems. Instead of having the pay the full fee for cleaning they just charged me a nominal check up fee which I appreciated.
Overall I would highly recommend them.
Staff were very pleasant and understanding.
VSM Pharmacy treated my problem professionally and book me in the same day. The lady who treated me was very kind and explained everything completely. I cannot speak too highly for the service I got. I would recommend this place to anyone.
I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
