Understanding Pet Passports

A pet passport is an essential document that allows your pet to travel internationally. It contains information about your pet’s identity, including their microchip number, rabies vaccination history, and other relevant details. Different countries have varying requirements for pet passports, so it’s crucial to consult with our veterinary team to ensure your pet meets all necessary criteria.

What You Need for a Pet Passport

  • Microchip: Your pet must be microchipped for identification purposes.
  • Rabies Vaccination: Up-to-date rabies vaccination is required for most international travel.
  • Additional Requirements: Some countries may have additional requirements, such as specific vaccinations or parasite treatments.

Comprehensive Consultation

During your pet’s consultation, our veterinarians will review your travel plans and assess your pet’s current health status. We will discuss the requirements for your destination country and provide guidance on any additional vaccinations or treatments your pet may need.

Microchipping

If your pet is not already microchipped, we will implant a microchip during your visit. This tiny chip contains a unique identification number that can be scanned by authorities to confirm your pet’s identity.

Rabies Vaccination

Ensuring your pet’s rabies vaccination is up-to-date is a crucial step in obtaining a pet passport. If your pet requires a rabies booster, we will administer the vaccine during your visit and update your pet’s vaccination records accordingly.

Documentation

Our veterinary team will complete all necessary paperwork for your pet’s passport, including filling out the passport application and providing documentation of your pet’s microchip and vaccination history. We will ensure that all information is accurate and meets the requirements of your destination country.
