What Is a Pet Health Certificate?
A pet health certificate is an official document that confirms your pet is healthy, vaccinated, and safe to travel. Airlines, states, and countries require this form before allowing pets to board flights or cross borders.
Your certificate includes:
A full physical exam
Vaccine verification
Travel eligibility confirmation
Official veterinarian signature
Because these certificates expire, timing is critical.
Domestic Pet Travel Health Certificates

- A current health certificate

- A veterinary exam within a specific timeframe
We ensure all domestic travel documents are properly completed so your pet can fly without issues.
International Pet Health Certificates
International travel requires additional steps. Depending on the destination, your pet may need:
