We advise that you check the pet importation requirements first of the destination country. Each country may have other specific requirements for entry of animals. These requirements are established by the importing country and not by the Philippines.
Other countries may require you to apply for an import permit or may have a specific export certificate format. Since export requirements may frequently change, obtain the current export requirements from the Veterinary Service of the destination country before each shipment.

However, a photocopy of the rabies vaccination record should be attached to the health certificate, and the original vaccination certificate presented to the BAI-NVQSD.
4. The health certificate should bear the name (printed/typewritten or computerized) and signature of the veterinarian. Other pertinent information of the veterinarian which includes the PTR, PRC number with its expiry date and TIN must be indicated.
