Austria Pet Import Requirements

Rabies vaccination with an inactivated or recombinant vaccine after 12 weeks of age and a wait of 21 days un not counting the day of vaccination.
The first rabies vaccination your pet gets after its microchip or after any lapse in coverage is a “primary” rabies vaccination according to EU rules.
For all pets vaccinated in the United States, a “primary” rabies vaccination is only valid for 1 year. Even if your pet is an adult animal and receives a three-year vaccine, if it is a “primary” rabies vaccination according to EU rules, it is only valid for 1 year. This is a USDA requirement.
If your pet does not receive another rabies vaccination within 1 year of a “primary” rabies vaccination, it means the vaccination coverage lapsed and you must start over. Even if the vaccination coverage only lapses by a day, the next rabies vaccination is again considered a “primary” rabies vaccination, and it is only valid for 1 year.
“Booster” Rabies Vaccination:
If your pet does get its next rabies vaccination within 1 year of a “primary” rabies vaccination, this “booster” rabies vaccination can be valid for 1-3 years, according to the vaccine manufacturer’s instructions. Note: If your pet’s most recent rabies vaccination before traveling to the EU is a “booster” rabies vaccination (rather than “primary”), you are responsible for providing all relevant rabies vaccination certificates to prove there was no lapse in coverage since the "primary" rabies vaccination. There is no wait time after receiving a “booster” vaccination, but the previous rabies vaccination must be included on the health certificate.
Reminder! Rabies Vaccinations do NOT count according to EU rules if:
Your pet got the vaccination before it had a microchip; or
Your pet got the vaccination without first having its microchip scanned.
Your pet should travel with all relevant rabies vaccination certificate(s), and it is strongly recommended the microchip number is recorded on all rabies vaccination certificate(s).

For unlisted countries, a serological rabies test (rabies titer determination) is mandatory for the importation of dogs, cats and ferrets.
The test can be administered no sooner than 30 days after a “primary” rabies vaccination. Dogs, cats and ferrets can enter the EU no sooner than 3 calendar months after the blood is drawn for the test. Pets entering the EU from unlisted countries must be a minimum of 7 months of age to conform to regulations.
 Dogs, cats and ferrets from Switzerland or Norway are moved under the conditions of intra-union trade.
