Primary care services, such as vaccinations, are available and free to all, including people who arrive in the United Kingdom through irregular routes. New arrivals are encouraged to receive a patient health check when they register in primary care, including previous vaccination history.

Vaccination data pertaining to migration status is not collected or published by the Government.
