Scenario #2
The pet is 4 months old and was microchipped and vaccinated today, with plans to travel to Germany in 10 days.
EU/UK Rabies Rules:
- The pet does meet this rule: Primary rabies must be given to the pet after or on the same date as the microchip implant (or the date of the microchip scan).
- The pet does NOT meet this rule: Pet must not travel until 21 days have passed following the primary rabies vaccination.
- The pet does meet this rule: Pet must be able to prove that it has not had a lapse between vaccinations
Since 21 days have not passed since the “primary” rabies vaccination, the pet is not allowed to travel in 10 days.
What to do:
The owner will need to adjust their travel schedule to some time after the 21-day wait period has passed.
