What Is a Pet International Health Certificate?

A Pet International Health Certificate, also called a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI), is a document required by most countries to prove your pet is healthy and fit for travel. Issued by a USDA-accredited veterinarian, this certificate verifies that your pet is free of contagious diseases and has met all destination-specific health regulations.

Travel requirements vary by country and may include:

Up-to-date rabies and core vaccinations
ISO-compliant microchipping
Internal and external parasite prevention
Country-specific blood tests or treatments
USDA endorsement of the certificate

Our team will guide you through every step, from documentation to final USDA approval if needed.

Why Are Health Certificates Important?

Traveling internationally without the correct paperwork can result in delays, quarantines, or denied entry for your pet. A valid Pet International Health Certificate ensures compliance with international laws and protects your pet’s well-being during travel.

Whether you’re moving, vacationing, or relocating temporarily, this certificate helps:

Prevent the spread of infectious diseases
Prove your pet is healthy and up to date on vaccines
Avoid unexpected travel complications

What to Expect

When you schedule your international health certificate appointment, our veterinary team will:

Review your travel plans and destination requirements
Perform a thorough physical examination
Administer or confirm required vaccines and treatments
Complete and sign your pet’s health certificate
Provide instructions for USDA endorsement (if applicable)

We recommend contacting us 4–6 weeks before your departure date, as some countries require advance testing or documentation with specific timelines.
