Health Certificates for Domestic & International Animal Travel | Village Vets

At Village Vets, we proudly offer Veterinary Health Certificates (VHCs) — also known as Certificates of Veterinary Inspection (CVIs) — for both domestic and international pet travel.


A Veterinary Health Certificate is an official document issued by an accredited Village Vets veterinarian  after a thorough examination of your pet. This certificate verifies that your animal meets all health and vaccination requirements for travel, relocation, sale, or exhibition, as mandated by your destination state, country, or event.

    We review your pet’s vaccination records — including rabies, parasite control, and other required tests — and make sure everything meets the destination’s health regulations.
