Vaccination during pregnancy is based on the national programme, previous vaccination history, gestational age, current health risks and vaccine availability. In India, Td is part of the Universal Immunization Programme for pregnant women.
| Vaccine | Suggested timing | Who / when | Planning note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Td-1 | As early as possible in pregnancy | Pregnancy | First Td dose during pregnancy when indicated under the national programme and based on previous Td/TT vaccination history. |
| Td-2 | 4 weeks after Td-1 | Pregnancy | Second Td dose, normally scheduled four weeks after Td-1. |
| Td booster | When eligible from previous vaccination history | Pregnancy | A booster may be used instead of repeating the primary course when the woman has received the appropriate recent Td/TT doses. |
| Influenza vaccine | Seasonal; during pregnancy | Any trimester when indicated | WHO recommends inactivated influenza vaccination during pregnancy. Seasonal programme and product availability vary by country. |
| COVID-19 vaccine | According to current national policy and vaccine availability | Pregnancy | WHO 2026 guidance recommends one dose during each pregnancy for pregnant women, at any stage, ideally during the second trimester. Local implementation should be followed. |
| Tdap | Common international recommendation: 27–36 weeks | Third trimester | Tdap is recommended during each pregnancy in several national guidelines to provide maternal and newborn protection. Use the local programme/product recommendation. |
| RSV maternal vaccine | Third trimester where available/programmed | Pregnancy | WHO recommends maternal RSV vaccination from around 28 weeks onwards where this product is available and included in the local programme. |
The table below follows the core National Immunization Schedule information published under India's Universal Immunization Programme. Japanese Encephalitis vaccination applies in designated endemic areas/programmes.
| Age | Vaccines | Planning information |
|---|---|---|
| At birth | BCG; Hepatitis B birth dose; OPV-0 | Hepatitis B birth dose should be given as early as possible, preferably within 24 hours. |
| 6 weeks | OPV-1; Pentavalent-1; Rotavirus-1; fIPV-1; PCV-1 | Follow the current UIP schedule available at the child’s vaccination facility. |
| 10 weeks | OPV-2; Pentavalent-2; Rotavirus-2 | Continue the primary infant series on schedule. |
| 14 weeks | OPV-3; Pentavalent-3; Rotavirus-3; fIPV-2; PCV-2 | Complete the primary series according to the national schedule. |
| 9–12 months | MR-1; JE-1 where applicable; PCV booster | JE is applicable in designated endemic areas/programmes. |
| 16–24 months | MR-2; JE-2 where applicable; DPT booster-1; OPV booster | Confirm exact availability and eligibility at the vaccination session. |
| 5–6 years | DPT booster-2 | Give according to the national schedule. |
| 10 years | Td | Tetanus-diphtheria booster under the national schedule. |
| 16 years | Td | Tetanus-diphtheria booster under the national schedule. |
Adult vaccination is individualized. The relevant schedule depends on age, pregnancy, previous vaccination, occupation, chronic conditions, immune status, travel and exposure risk.
| Vaccine / group | Typical planning approach | Important consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Influenza | Seasonal / according to risk | Consider based on age, pregnancy, occupation, chronic disease and local recommendations. |
| COVID-19 | According to current national guidance | Schedule depends on current national policy, previous vaccination and risk of severe disease. |
| Td/Tdap | Based on vaccination history and indication | May be indicated for wound management, pregnancy or routine adult protection depending on the person’s history. |
| Hepatitis B | Risk-based | Consider for people with relevant occupational, household, sexual, medical or other exposure risks. |
| HPV | Age/risk and national programme dependent | Usually planned outside pregnancy; follow current national recommendations. |
| MMR / Varicella | Usually before pregnancy or after pregnancy when indicated | These are live vaccines and are generally avoided during pregnancy. |
| Situation | Planning principle |
|---|---|
| Pregnancy | Vaccination decisions should account for pregnancy, gestational age, previous vaccination, allergies, medical conditions and local recommendations. |
| Prematurity | Premature infants generally need timely vaccination according to chronological age unless a specific vaccine or clinical condition requires another approach. |
| Missed doses | Do not automatically restart a vaccine series because a dose is late. A catch-up plan should be made using the current national schedule and minimum intervals. |
| Chronic disease | Some chronic conditions increase the importance of vaccination or change which vaccines are indicated. |
| Travel | Travel-related vaccines depend on destination, outbreak status, age, pregnancy and individual risk; obtain travel-medicine advice before departure. |
| Previous severe reaction | A history suggestive of anaphylaxis to a vaccine or vaccine component requires clinical assessment before another dose. |

India's UIP covers pregnant women and children. The National Immunization Schedule includes Td during pregnancy and routine childhood vaccines from birth through adolescence.
Vaccine selection in pregnancy is not identical in every country. Inactivated influenza vaccine is recommended during pregnancy by WHO. Tdap, COVID-19 and maternal RSV vaccination are also addressed in current international guidance, but timing and programme availability should be checked locally.
Live vaccines such as MMR and varicella are generally avoided during pregnancy. If a live vaccine was given inadvertently before pregnancy was recognized, the person should contact their healthcare professional for individualized counselling; inadvertent administration alone is not generally an indication for pregnancy termination.
A generated date is not a confirmed vaccination appointment. Vaccination records, minimum intervals, vaccine availability, programme changes and individual clinical factors can alter the actual date.
Under the Indian Universal Immunization Programme, Td vaccination is provided during pregnancy according to previous vaccination history. Other vaccines such as influenza, COVID-19, Tdap or RSV may be recommended depending on current national policy, product availability and clinical indication.
The National Immunization Schedule specifies Td-2 four weeks after Td-1 when Td-2 is required.
The National Immunization Schedule includes BCG, the hepatitis B birth dose and OPV-0 at birth, subject to the current programme and facility availability.
A delayed dose usually does not mean that an entire series must be restarted. The appropriate catch-up interval and vaccine should be confirmed from the current national schedule or by a qualified vaccination provider.
