Vaccines Your Child Needs

Vaccinations at CHAS Clinics
Singaporean children can get free NCIS vaccinations at CHAS GP clinics if they:
- Are at the right age for the vaccine.
- Meet the medical conditions listed in the NCIS.
Note:
- Full subsidies only apply to certain vaccine brands. Check MOH’s list for details.
- CHAS GP Clinics offer all NCIS vaccinations, except the BCG vaccine given at birth.
