How it Works
Five simple steps to obtain your Animal Health Certificate

You Check
If you have a Dog, Cat or Ferret and they have a microchip and they have been vaccinated against rabies, we can issue an AHC for travel.
2
You Apply
Complete our simple online application form and provide the necessary supporting documentation confirming your pets’ rabies vaccination status
3
We Confirm
Once we have verified your pets’ rabies vaccination & microchip status and approved your application we will send you a secure Paylink. Once payment is received, your AHC is confirmed.

We Prepare
Once payment has been received your AHC application is assigned to one of our Official Veterinarians. It will be prepared and ready to issue on the confirmed collection date.

You Collect
On your confirmed collection date, you must arrive in Folkestone in person with your pet(s) so we scan and verify the microchip and witness you signing the AHC.
