how do you get dublicate rabie tag

It looks like you mean how to get a duplicate/replacement rabies tag for a pet. Usually, you get one by contacting the veterinarian, animal control, or county office that issued the original rabies vaccination record. In many places, they’ll reissue a tag if you have the rabies certificate or can verify the pet’s record, and some counties let you order a replacement by mail, online, or in person.

What to do

  • Find your pet’s rabies certificate, if you have it.
  • Call the vet clinic that gave the vaccine, or the local animal control/county office.
  • Ask for a replacement rabies tag or a reissued certificate.
  • Be ready to provide proof of residency or ID if your county requires it.

Important note

In some places, the certificate matters more than the metal tag , and a lost tag does not always mean the vaccination is invalid. Local rules vary, though, and some counties only issue one tag per animal or charge a small replacement fee.

If the tag is lost

If the tag was lost but the vaccine is still current, the fastest route is usually the original vet clinic. If the vaccination was done through a county program, shelter, or animal control, they may be the ones who can replace it directly.

TL;DR: Call the vet or county office with your rabies certificate and ask for a replacement tag; many places can reissue it for a small fee.
