Over the phone bookings
Book or ask questions over the phone from 8.30am to 5pm, Monday to Friday (except public holidays).
Interpreters are available and you can choose to speak with a Māori advisor, a disability advisor, or use NZ Relay.
Book through your usual healthcare provider
Call your usual doctor, nurse, or healthcare provider if you have one to make an immunisation appointment. Plan at least 1 to 2 weeks ahead so you can get a time and date that works best for you and your whānau.
If you are unable to call, check your healthcare provider’s website for other options to make an appointment.
Ask for an immunisation appointment for either yourself or your child. You will need to provide the name and date of birth of the person being immunised. The provider will know what immunisations you need as they can look this up on the Aotearoa Immunisation Register.
Pharmacy immunisations
Adults, older children, and teenagers can get some vaccinations at pharmacies including:
- flu
- measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR)
- HPV
- chickenpox
- tetanus, diphtheria, whooping cough (Boostrix)
- meningococcal
- COVID-19.
Contact your local pharmacy directly to see what immunisations they offer and if you need to book an appointment. Before booking, check to see if there is a cost involved.
Lots of vaccine bookings at pharmacies can be made online.
Māori and Pacific Health providers
Māori and Pacific Health providers can offer immunisations.
Chat with your Hauora Māori or Pacific Health provider or find a provider near you.
School-based immunisations
Public health teams visit participating schools to immunise students against HPV and tetanus, diphtheria, and whooping cough — usually in Year 7 or Year 8. Your child's school will give you information and consent forms.
If your child has missed a school vaccination, contact your school to see if there is a catch-up vaccination day.
If your school is not offering immunisations, or your child has missed out for any other reason, they can easily catch up with a visit to your doctor, nurse, or healthcare provider. This is also an option if you would like to be with your child when they get their vaccination.
If you need extra support
When you make an appointment, make sure you let the team know if you or your tamariki might need some extra help.
They may be able to:
- provide a space away from other people
- support you with other tamariki you bring to the appointment
- arrange accessibility and mobility assistance.
