Replies on Rabies Vaccine Waiver? Meh.

No way to get around it for entering the state, and if your documents are not just right your animals will be quarantined at your expense... but once there you do not have to keep vaccinating your cats.

Hawaii is very strict with rabies vaccines. You need to get a packet and follow their directions. It requires a titer that has to be sent to a special lab and it has time limits when the rabies vaccine has to be given. Hawaii has never had a case of rabies so they will not let any animal in their state without one.
