How to choose a pet passport
Every UPC pet passport tracks the same core information. The choice comes down to the cover, the personalization, and whether you're ordering for one pet or a whole practice.
Standard, premium, and custom passports
Every passport, whether you call it a pet passport or an animal passport, includes the same core sections: animal information, vaccines and treatments, and records. What changes between versions is the cover and the personalization. A premium cover comes in more than 20 colors and textures of PU leather, and a personalized edition adds a color photo of your pet with the details prefilled.
Pet professionals can also order a custom edition with a full color page to feature a business, clinic, or kennel, with no minimum order. Contact us for a custom print run.
Whichever version you choose, pair it with your pet's registry profile so the same identification details are backed up online.

Pet travel document basics for EU, USA, and Canada
Traveling with a pet generally means having proof of identification (a microchip or tag), an up to date rabies vaccination, and sometimes a rabies antibody titration test, which some countries use to confirm the vaccine worked before allowing entry. A passport keeps all of this in one place instead of loose paperwork.
Exact requirements differ by country and by airline, and they change over time. This page is general information, not legal or veterinary advice. Before you book travel for your dog or cat, check the official pet travel requirements for your destination and airline, and confirm timing with your vet, since some tests and vaccinations must happen a set number of days before departure.
Pet passport and travel document questions
What's the difference between a standard and a premium pet passport?
Both include the same animal information, vaccine, and record sections. Premium adds a colorful PU leather cover, and a personalized edition adds a prefilled color photo page.
What belongs in my pet's vaccine record?
At minimum, rabies vaccination history, other core vaccines, and antiparasite treatments. Many owners also log annual wellness exam results and any other treatments or surgeries.
Do I need a rabies antibody titration test to travel?
Some countries require one for international travel or shipping, usually in place of accepting the vaccination record alone. Check the official requirements for your destination, since testing has to happen within a specific window before you travel.
What do I need for a dog passport for EU travel?
EU pet travel generally involves a microchip, a current rabies vaccination, and a completed passport or health document. Rules vary by country of entry, so confirm the current requirements with an official source before you travel.
Can I order a custom pet passport for my business?
Yes. A custom passport can include a full color page for your practice, kennel, or business, and there's no minimum order.
