Most countries including all of the EU Countries require that a veterinarian certificate issued in Canada by a licensed veterinarian then be endorsed by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). The following is the procedure for acquiring this certification.

Have your veterinarian complete the EU form 998 if traveling to an EU Country or the veterinary certificate for the country you are traveling to if it is not an EU Country.

Your vet will complete the veterinary certificate including the vaccination record and will affirm that the pet is free of parasites, free of diseases communicable to humans, and in good health.

Some Rabies Free Countries such as the UK require a blood titer test.

Some countries also require a certificate of treatment against Ticks and Tapeworms sometimes referred to as the Echinococcus treatment.

The Veterinarian must sign and date the forms required for the country you are visiting.

Take or mail the original of the form(s) to the nearest CFIA and they will endorse and stamp them.

The fee is normally $20 per form. More than 1 animal with the same owner going to the same destination can be listed on a form. If your vet uses separate forms for each animal, it will be $20 per form.

If there is not a CFIA office located nearby you can send the forms by mail.

• The original of the form(s)
• Payment in the amount of $20 per form
