RNATT / RNAT test

For some countries, the governments require a RNAT test prior to travel. This is a Rabies Neutralizing Antibody Titer Test.

Feel welcome to contact us to discuss the detailed requirements. Ferndale use and offer the internationally recognized rabies test (sometimes referred to as a RNATT test) which is accepted for pet travel throughout the world.

Can Ferndale arrange the RNAT?

We can help arrange this RNAT blood test with your vet, or with our partner veterinary services.

The blood is collected from a dog or cat by the veterinarian, and then its centrifuged to collect the serum. It’s the serum sample that has to be sent overseas to an approved Veterinary Laboratory. We tend to use Labs in the United Kingdom for testing samples to an approved international standard. The local Hong Kong laboratories are not approved for this process.

RNAT test paperwork details

It is important that the microchip digit, blood sampling date, and all other details is consistent between the RNAT test laboratory report and the other paperwork like immunization cards or other documents.
