2026 Childhood Vaccination Schedule Philippines: Parent Guide

The Philippine childhood vaccination schedule is organized by age, but your child’s actual plan depends on the doses already documented, the vaccine products used, minimum intervals, health history, and special risks. Use the schedule as a planning guide—not as a reason to repeat or skip a dose without reviewing the record.

What parents should do first

1. Keep one complete vaccination record.
2. Bring the original booklet or clear photos of every page to every pediatric visit.
3. Mark the next review milestone in your phone calendar.
4. Ask for a written catch-up plan when any dose is delayed or unclear.

Common review points

Important review periods include birth, the early infant series beginning around six weeks, later infant milestones, the first birthday period, toddler catch-up, school-entry years, and the preteen and adolescent years. The exact vaccines due at each point must be checked against the documented record.

Why the booklet matters

A birth date alone cannot show what your child has already received. A doctor also needs the date, product, dose number, and where possible the lot or clinic documentation. This prevents unnecessary repetition and helps identify true gaps.

When to book a vaccine review

• The record is incomplete, lost, or contains conflicting dates.
• A dose was delayed because of illness, travel, supply, or access.
• The child is entering school or traveling internationally.
• The child has a chronic condition, immune concern, or previous vaccine reaction.
• You are unsure whether a vaccine series is complete.

What to bring

• Vaccination booklet and newborn record
• School or hospital vaccine records
• List of medicines, allergies, and medical conditions
• Travel dates and destinations
• Questions about previous reactions
