It looks like that you are covered by the last vaccine if it was as properly done. But we need to clarify that how much shots of which vaccine you took.

Effect of vaccination generally lasts for 2 years, but it can vary. You need to do antirabies antibody titre (its a blood test). If it is within level then you need not take vaccination but if its low then you will need repeat vaccination.
