Pet Travel Compliance Services
Microchip and Implant Certificate
Microchipping is the most fundamental requirement for international pet travel compliance and is mandatory for almost all countries worldwide. At AirPets, we provide ISO-compliant pet microchip implantation in India, along with a certified microchip implant certificate for pet travel, ensuring your pet has a globally recognized identification system.
A microchip acts as a permanent pet identification chip, linking your pet’s vaccination records, ownership details, and travel documentation. It is crucial that the microchip is implanted before administering the rabies vaccination, as per international pet relocation regulations followed by countries like the USA, UK, EU nations, UAE, and Australia. Failure to follow this sequence can result in rejection of travel documentation.
Our team ensures that the microchip used is compatible with international scanners and meets ISO standards (ISO 11784/11785). We also carefully document the microchip number across all certificates to maintain consistency.

AirPets manages the entire process of rabies antibody testing for dogs and cats, including blood sample collection and submission to EU-approved labs as well as recognized Indian government-approved laboratories. Timing is crucial, as the test must be conducted after rabies vaccination and followed by a mandatory waiting period depending on the destination country.
