Pet Travel Document Assistance
Where do I start when travelling with my pet?
The first step is to obtain your destination country’s requirements directly from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). These official requirements outline all necessary vaccines, tests, treatments, microchipping rules, and documentation.
Why do I need to get the requirements from the CFIA first?
Every destination has different entry rules for pets. The CFIA provides the most accurate, up-to-date information, and we must review these requirements before we can begin preparing your pet’s travel documents or scheduling appointments.
What travel services can your veterinary team assist with?
Once you provide the CFIA requirements, we can help with:
Pre-travel examinations
Completion of international health certificates
Vaccine updates
Rabies titre testing (when required)
Microchip placement and verification
Parasite treatment documentation
Destination-specific timelines and checklists
Support with booking CFIA endorsement appointments
FAQ
Q: What if my destination has complicated requirements?
A: We regularly assist with countries that have strict or multi-step processes. Once you bring us the CFIA’s instructions, we’ll help break down timelines and guide you through each step.
