Abstract		The only officialy required vaccination for international travelers is vaccination against yellow fever. An International Certificate of Vaccination is issued by special Yellow Fever Vaccination Centers and is mandatory for entering into some of the countries, where the disease is endemic. The booster for childhood immunizations should be up-to-date. The most common vaccine preventable disease on travel is hepatitis A. Vaccine is recommended for all travellers, except for those travelling to western Europe, USA or Canada. The risk for other vaccine preventable diseases is small, vaccination decision should be taken on individual basis.
Summary		Edino obvezno cepljenje v potovalni medicini je cepljenje proti rumeni mrzlici. Potrdilo o cepljenju, ki ga izdajo posebni cepilni centri, je obvezno za vstop v večino držav, kjer je rumena mrzlica endemična. Popotnik mora biti na tekočem s poživitvenimi odmerki rutinskih otroških cepljenj. Najpogostejša bolezen na potovanju, ki jo lahko preprečimo s cepljenjem, je hepatitis A. Cepljenje je priporočljivo za vse popotnike, razen za tiste, ki potujejo v zahodno Evropo, ZDA in Kanado. Tveganje za ostale bolezni je majhno, za cepljenje se odločamo individualno.
