The Importance of Health Certificates

Export documents are required for any horse crossing an international border, as well as for horses being exported to another state.

A Certificate of Veterinarian Inspections is required to help reduce disease spread from one area and from one horse to another. An inspection for illness by your vet helps to identify obvious or even subtle signs of disease that may not have otherwise been detected.

Requirements for health certificates are different for each state, and our Stillwater veterinary practice regularly reviews shipping requirements for your horse. Interstate health certificates, international health certificates, and passports are available.

Coggins Testing, Stillwater Vets

Coggins Testing

The Coggins test screens for EIA. A negative test within twelve months is required for interstate transport. We recommend annual testing for all horses to help prevent the spread of this disease.

How Do I Acquire A Health Certificate For My Horse?

A current negative Coggins test is a necessary first step in getting a health certificate for your horse.

Our vets at Stillwater Equine Veterinary Clinic can do this for you during your horse's appointment, or we can accept a recent Coggins from your previous vet.

How Long Do Health Certificates Remain Valid?

Unlike your horse's Coggins test, which typically needs to be done within 12 months of travel (for international it's within six months), your horse's health certificates are only valid for 30 days.

The port of crossing is required information for all international health certificates being issued.

This is why, when you are planning to travel with or ship your horse, organization and preparation are essential.

Contact Stillwater Equine Veterinary Clinic to discuss your travel plans and talk about when you need to secure your horse's travel documentation.
