Rabies vaccinations for dogs are administered by veterinarians providing veterinary services as part of an animal treatment facility. After the vaccination, the dog owner is issued a certificate or the vaccination is entered in the health booklet/passport.

The District Veterinary Inspector warns:

Failure to comply with the obligation to have a dog preventively vaccinated against rabies is punishable by a fine of up to PLN 500. Rabies is the most dangerous zoonotic disease. By vaccinating your dog, you protect yourself!
