Frequently Asked Questions

A smoother trip starts with good information.

Where can I get a pet health certificate in Las Vegas?

Craig Road Animal Hospital provides domestic and international
health certificate services for dogs and cats in Las Vegas,
Nevada. Begin by submitting your pet’s destination and travel
information through the Passpaw portal on this page.

What is a pet health certificate?

A health certificate is an official veterinary document
confirming that your pet meets the health requirements for a
particular destination. The required form and supporting
documents vary by destination.

How early should I begin?

Begin as soon as your travel plans are known—especially for
international travel. Some destinations require steps that must
happen in a specific order or within precise timeframes, and the
process may take weeks or months.

Does my pet need a certificate for domestic travel?

Possibly. Requirements are determined by the receiving state or
territory, and your airline may have additional rules. Enter your
trip details in Passpaw so the applicable requirements can be
reviewed.

Does every country use the same health certificate?

No. Each country establishes its own entry requirements, forms,
and timelines. Requirements can also differ based on your pet’s
species, travel route, and method of transportation.

Will my pet need a veterinary examination?

Most health certificates require a veterinary examination within
a defined period before travel. Your destination may also require
vaccinations, testing, treatments, or other documentation.

Are airline requirements included?

Airlines may impose requirements in addition to those of your
destination. Always confirm current rules directly with your
airline, including carrier specifications and check-in
procedures.

Travel requirements can change without notice and approval is
determined by the destination, airline, and applicable government
authorities. Beginning the process does not guarantee that a pet will
qualify for travel by a specific date.
