Animal Health Certificate
Travelling to Europe? Here's how it works:
1. Ensure your pet's rabies vaccination is up to date
Contact your usual vet and ensure that your pet's rabies vaccination has been given at least 21 days before (unless this vaccine was a booster). Rabies vaccines are usually valid for three years. Have questions? Check our FAQs
2. Book your appointment online
Use our booking page to choose a date and time that suits you. Your appointment must take place within 10 days of your travel date.
3. Complete your pet details form
After booking you'll receive a confirmation email and a (very short) Pet Details Form. Please complete this before your appointment — it covers your pet's details, travel dates and destinations so we can have your paperwork ready to go!
4. Come and see us
Please arrive on time. Bring your pet and ensure the named certificate holder is present. We'll take care of the rest — your certificate will be ready before you travel.
