The codes regarding rabies vaccines can vary from place to place. You can look up local ordinances regarding frequency of vaccinations. You can also opt for having a rabies titer done instead of a vaccination. Many people decide to just get the vaccine since it is often less expensive. Ask your vet what your options are. Rabies vaccines are required by law since it is transmissible to humans and is so deadly. Titers may or may not be an option depending on the laws in your area.
