Do I Need All Vaccines to Get a Rabies Certificate?

To obtain a rabies certificate, only the rabies vaccine needs to be administered. This requirement is intended to protect people and animals from the spread of the disease. However, the vaccine cannot be administered without a clinical examination of the animal.

It is in your pet’s best interest to bring them in for routine preventive check-ups and to have the necessary vaccines recommended by your vet administered.

Recommended vaccination schedule for dogs:

• Combined vaccine (distemper, parvovirus, hepatitis, leptospirosis)

• Kennel cough vaccine

• Rabies vaccine

• Annual booster

For cats:

• Pure Vax RCP (rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, panleukopenia)

• Pure Vax FeLV (feline leukaemia)

• Rabies vaccine

There are many infectious diseases in animals, and a large proportion of them are fatal. The cost of the vaccines that protect against these diseases is not high. Vaccination is a safe, easy and effective way to prevent disease.
