All pets entering Germany are required to be vaccinated against the rabies virus. You should vaccinate them at the same time or after their microchip has been implanted. Germany accepts one year rabies vaccinations as well as three year ones, provided the boosters have been given in a timely manner.
Once your pet has been vaccinated against rabies, you’ll need to conduct a titer test. A rabies neutralizing antibody test (RNAT), also known as a rabies titer test, checks if your pet’s vaccination was successful and if they have developed an adequate level of antibodies.
Once 30 days have passed after your pet’s rabies vaccination, you can get this test conducted on a blood sample. This sample must be submitted to an EU-approved blood testing lab, and the results must be affixed to the health certificate and wherever else applicable.
