Dear Pet Owners!
Many of you might be planning to travel home for the Holidays. If you are not from the European Union, you might need an Animal Health Certificate signed by an official veterinarian for your pet. The government office however will be closed between 27th December 2023 and 1st January 2024.
That is why we advise you to plan your travel with your pet in time. If you want to contact an official veterinarian, you can do so by phone or via email.

EU Regulations:

Please also note that the beginning of validity of the first rabies vaccine of a pet is 21 days after vaccination!
If you also need a rabies titer test either to travel to your destination county or to later travel back to Hungary, the result will take at least 2 weeks (or even more, especially nearing the Holidays!) to arrive. Additionally, there are countries that require a waiting period after the test results arrive.
About pet microchipping, rabies vaccinations, rabies titer test, deworming treatment and clinical examination before travel, please feel free to contact our clinic via email or phone during opening hours.
