The three-month period shall not apply to the re-entry of an animal whose passport certifies that the rabies antibody titration test was performed, with a satisfactory result, before the animal left the territory of the EU. Even though the result of rabies antibody titration test is indicated in the passport or certificate, it is necessary to have at travelling abroad also the relevant laboratory protocol (or its attested copy, respectively) containing results of the test available.

The rabies antibody titration test needs not to be renewed in an animal subjected to that testing with a satisfactory result and then re-vaccinated against rabies always during the period of validity of the previous vaccination.
