USDA Health Certificates and Travel Documentation for Dogs and Cats
What Are Pet Travel Certificates?
Pet travel certificates, often called health certificates, are documents that verify your pet is healthy enough for travel and meets the requirements of the destination. Depending on where you are traveling, this may include proof of vaccination, examination findings, laboratory testing, or USDA endorsement.
Travel requirements can vary widely based on the destination, airline, and type of travel, so it is important to begin the process as early as possible.
Domestic and International Travel Requirements
Our team can help guide you through travel requirements for both domestic and international trips. Depending on your destination, your pet may need:
A physical examination
Updated vaccinations
Diagnostic testing
Parasite screening or treatment
USDA health certificate documentation
USDA endorsement, when required
Because requirements may change and some destinations have strict timelines, early preparation is strongly recommended.
