What Is a Pet Health Certificate?

A pet health certificate is an official document, signed by a licensed veterinarian, that confirms your pet is healthy and meets the travel requirements of your destination. These certificates are often required by airlines, states, or foreign countries before your pet can board a plane or cross borders.

Depending on your destination, your pet may need:

  • A USDA-accredited veterinarian’s signature
  • Proof of current vaccinations (especially rabies)
  • Recent physical examination
  • Specific testing or treatments (e.g., deworming, bloodwork)
  • Microchip identification

Domestic and International Travel Services

We provide USDA-accredited pet health certificates for both domestic and international travel.

Domestic Travel

Many U.S. states and airlines require a health certificate issued within 10 days of departure. We’ll ensure your pet’s vaccines and health status are up to date and provide the necessary documentation for interstate travel.

International Travel

Traveling abroad with your pet? Each country has its own requirements—and they can be complex. We’ll help you navigate them, including:

  • Completing APHIS 7001 forms
  • Coordinating USDA endorsements
  • Preparing for quarantine or additional testing, if required

We recommend reaching out well in advance (at least 1–2 months before travel) so we can help you meet all necessary timelines.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

  • Pre-Travel Consultation: Share your travel details and destination.
  • Physical Exam: Our veterinarian will assess your pet’s overall health and ensure they meet travel requirements.
  • Document Preparation: We’ll complete the appropriate certificate forms, confirm vaccination history, and handle USDA endorsements if needed.
  • Support & Guidance: We’ll provide clear instructions and answer all your questions about the journey ahead.
