Risk / Health Info for Liechtenstein

What vaccines do you need for Liechtenstein? Our advisors can put together a travel health regime that meets all your needs. Before travelling to Liechtenstein, be sure to update your regular vaccinations. It is highly recommended that you purchase travel medical insurance before you leave for Liechtenstein because provincial or territorial health plans may not cover medical costs while you’re outside of Canada. Contact your provincial or territorial health authority for more information. Travellers are advised to take precautions against bug bites, which can cause Lyme disease, tick-borne encephalitis and West Nile virus.

Altitude in Liechtenstein

Parts of Liechtenstein are higher than 2,400m, and travellers planning to spend time at a high altitude should take steps to protect themselves against the potentially life-threatening acute mountain sickness. Your healthcare provider can help with this.

Tick-borne encephalitis in Liechtenstein

Tick-borne encephalitis can be contracted in the forested areas of Liechtenstein. If you will be in an affected area from late spring to early fall, whether for fun (camping, hiking or walking) or work (with forestry or agriculture), speak to your healthcare provider about vaccination and other measures you can take to avoid TBE and other tick-borne illnesses before travelling to the area.
