Rabbits

Has anyone have experience with taking house rabbits to EU?
I have tried looking at the official websites but it is a bit confusing as they fall under "other" category away from cats, dogs and ferrets.
Is it really possible that they don't need any documents and vaccine?
They are all chipped but not done anything else as kept purely indoors.
We are considering taking them in the car with us this summer driving through 3/4 countries.
Thankful for any advice!

Rabies vaccination - is this a thing?
I can't tell whether all the pets needed or is this directed at cats, dogs and ferrets group?

Have you had a chat with your vet? Brexit has made this very complicated.

Are the rabbits fully vaccinated against Myxi & RHD? Obviously those are the biggest risk for rabbits.

You will also need to check what regulations there are for each country you're travelling through as they may have different rules.

There's some details here but it's for bringing animals back into the UK from the EU rather than travelling out.

That sounds horrendously stressful for the rabbits! If you mean you're on holiday then I think this is bonkers.
