Vaccinations

Rijksinstituut voor Volksgezondheid en Milieu (RIVM) (National Institute for Public Health and Environment) keeps track of the immunizations your children need.

Once you are registered with the municipality, you will receive a letter from the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment. The children will receive a calling card with the type of vaccination listed and the date and location where it can be administered. If you have a vaccination booklet or data sheet from a foreign country, you can send all the information to the government to have the information updated in their files. Exemptions can be obtained for vaccinations already obtained.

Information about the National Immunization Program can be obtained in English on the RIVM website.
