Pet Health Certificates in Duluth, GA
If you plan to travel domestically or internationally with your pet, you’ll need to have a domestic or international health certificate drawn up for your pet ahead of your trip! See below for important information about obtaining your pet’s health certificate and making the necessary preparations to get the rest of your paperwork sorted. We look forward to helping you meet your pet’s travel requirements!
Domestic Pet Health Certificate
Go to the USDA website for interstate pet travel to review the requirements specific to your destination state. Not all states will have the same pet requirements.
Contact your airline about their pet travel requirements. How soon will they need your pet’s paperwork? What is the window of time in which your pet needs to have an exam? Your airline may also have some forms that your veterinarian will need to complete. Getting all the necessary documents completed in time is your responsibility. However, our team will be glad to help you in any way you need. Be sure to pre-schedule your pet’s appointment for an exam and paperwork at your earliest convenience so we can make sure you get everything you need in time. Many airlines require that a pet be examined within 10 days of flying.
Please note: During the summer, we often book out 2 weeks in advance. Since health certificates need to be completed within 10 days of departure, please confirm the date of your flight and schedule your pet’s exam in advance—we do not do health certificate appointments in an urgent or emergent capacity.
To schedule a health certificate appointment, select the TeleVet button below, enter “Health Certificate” as your reason for an appointment, and fill out the corresponding Health Certificate Appointment Form. If you have any questions, please email us at patientcare@tigertailsanimalhospital.com.
