What your vet needs to know about your pet's official travel documents

Connor Puhalo

When the vet is completing your pet’s official travel documents (Animal Health Certificate or EU Pet Passport), make sure the date of implantation or date of reading of the microchip is the same date, or before, the date of the rabies vaccination
The certificate reference number must be written on each page of your pet’s Animal Health Certificate
Each page must be stamped with the official stamp (OV/LVI for British vets) on your pet’s Animal Health Certificate
All relevant Section of an EU Pet Passport should be correctly filled and stamped where needed by your EU Vet
for the Rabies Section of the EU Pet Passport make sure that vaccine name and manufacturer, date of vaccination, "valid from" and "valid until" dates, vet details or stamp and signature of your EU Vet are filled in dedicated boxes.
