Shingles vaccine – Who can get a free NHS shingles vaccine?

The eligibility criteria changed on 1 September 2023. You’ll be eligible for a free shingles vaccine once you turn 65 following this date and will remain eligible until you turn 80. However, if you turned 65 before this date, you’ll have to wait until you turn 70 to be eligible for the vaccine.

If you have a severely weakened immune system, you’re eligible from the age of 50 onwards, with no upper age limit.

If you’re aged between 70 and 79 and haven’t been offered the shingles vaccine yet, speak to a healthcare professional about arranging your vaccination soon.
