Oh yes, I remember now, the advice was to go with the manufacturer's data sheet for peak titre levels, not the 30 day figure required for export health certificates. Thanks.

Didn't we use to recommend 21 days? (As opposed to the current 30d for current regulations).

As another point, today is becoming extremely likely that WA vote--> fails then No deal/Deal put forward, which given current HoC, the vote will lead to a delay of A50 and rules will stay as they are now for a while.

I was puzzled by that too - it was >30 days post vaccination. That was always the case wasn't it? I am essentially just producing a new passport for a current valid one but have to include the titre result and don't have concrete evidence. Biobest have said they will have it but the only info they recorded back then was the lab ref no, not any animal or client names. Off to the archive room I go!

I must be missing something - why are you so certain this will be the case?

[quote user="Will McMullan"]I feel I will potentially be breaking the rules of certification if I complete the passport without having concrete evidence for the sampling date.[/quote]

I agree, you can't certify on that basis.

[quote user="Will McMullan"]Any ideas?[/quote]

As the others have said, contact the lab, they'll probably have a copy of the titre test results.

Not that UK pet passports will be valid post-brexit of course

Biobest should have copies (£20 I think) but I would almost guarantee that the bloods will have been tasken within the 30 days therefore not eligible for PETS passport as an unlisted country.

Yes I would try your lab as they may have a note of the sample date there. Note that if it is less than 30 days from the rabies vaccination you will have to repeat it anyway...

Biobest might have a copy of the certificate? sample date should be on it.
