What is a Pet Health Certificate?

A pet health certificate is an official document that verifies your pet is healthy and free from contagious diseases. It’s required for pets traveling across state lines or by air. The certificate must be completed and signed by a USDA-accredited veterinarian, confirming that your pet has received all necessary vaccines and is fit for travel.

We provide Interstate (domestic) pet health certificates, which are required for traveling between states or on U.S. airlines.

FAVN Rabies Antibody Testing

Some destinations require a FAVN Rabies Antibody Test before entry. This specialized blood test confirms that your pet has adequate rabies antibody levels for travel. Our team can collect and submit the sample to the approved laboratory and guide you through the timeline, which often includes specific waiting periods.

Each destination has unique health and vaccine requirements, and paperwork must be completed within specific timeframes. Our team will guide you through the process to ensure that all documents are correct and submitted on time.
