Your latest compliant veterinary start date was Sep 10, 2026. Arriving in UAE without meeting the full 90-day Rabies Titer (FAVN) wait triggers border refusal, mandatory quarantine detention, or re-export at owner expense unless your pet already holds an active, microchip-linked rabies vaccination and endorsed FAVN blood test.
