Be careful if you're going on vacation outside France (not including the French overseas departments and territories): all countries require rabies vaccination. And of course, other vaccines, antiparasitics... Ask your vet for the right information.

Even if you're staying in France and taking a plane, train or boat, check with the company as well.

If you leave your pet in a boarding kennel, they may ask you for certain vaccinations, anti-parasite treatments...

Depending on where you're going, certain diseases may be more or less prevalent in the north or south. Ask your vet if you need to be vaccinated.
