There are different types of Rabies vaccination titers. The FAVN is required for travel to Rabies free countries, but they also offer the RFFIT which is less expensive, but is not adequate for travel. Both are offered through Kansas State University Rabies Lab ( http://www.ksvdl.org/rabies-laboratory/ ). I hope that was helpful and answered your question. Thanks for using PetCoach.
