Why do you need a pet passport?
It’s your pet’s essential travel document, combining microchip ID, vaccination history, health certificates, and official permits.

Without a valid pet passport, your pet may face lengthy quarantines, be denied entry, or experience costly delays at your destination. By preparing everything in advance, you’re not only protecting your pet’s health but also ensuring its well-being. You’re also making the travel experience safer, smoother, and fully compliant with the latest international rules.

How long does the passport application process take?
We can issue a pet passport on the same day your pet receives their vaccinations. If it’s your pet’s first vaccination, the passport will be provided during that visit.
For puppies or kittens, the full course of required vaccinations for travel typically takes 4 to 8 weeks to complete.
If your pet is coming in for annual vaccinations and has lost their previous passport, we can issue a replacement at the same time.
Please note that travel timelines depend on the destination country. While the passport is generally valid as long as your pet’s vaccinations and parasite treatments are up to date, some countries may have additional requirements, such as rabies titer tests or specific health certificates.
