OV66 Identity Verification for Australia

Dogs and cats travelling from the UK to Australia require identity verification as part of their Australian import preparation. The London Travel Vet is OV66 authorised to complete this identity verification, confirming your pet’s microchip and identity before the RNATT blood sample is taken.

When completed correctly alongside the other Australian import requirements, identity verification can contribute to eligibility for a minimum 10-day quarantine period rather than 30 days on arrival in Australia

The London Travel Vet can provide the veterinary assessment and RNATT declaration and documentation required for your pet’s Australian travel preparations.
