OFFICIAL USDA CERTIFICATION:
Some countries require that a veterinarian certificate issued in the United States have an official USDA stamp. The following is the procedure for acquiring one.

Have your veterinarian complete the EU form 998 or other form for the country you are visiting. Your veterinarian will complete and sign the form including the vaccination information and stating that the pet is parasite free and in good health.

Take the original of the form to the APHIS/USDA vet office in your state and they will endorse and stamp them. There is a fee per form...more than 1 animal can be listed on a form. If your vet uses separate forms for each animal; there will be a separate fee per form. If there is not a State office located nearby you can send the forms by mail.
Include: The original of the form
The payment in the form of a check or money order.
A self-addressed, stamped envelope for returning the form to you. We recommend using expedited service both ways that offers delivery tracking.
