How to Easily Manage Veterinary Health Certificates with GlobalVetLink

by Ali Oaks | August 20, 2024

When transporting pets across state or international borders, a veterinary health certificate is essential. These certificates, also known as Certificates of Veterinary Inspection (CVIs), are legally required to ensure that pets are healthy and meet all the necessary requirements for travel. However, the process of creating and submitting these certificates can be time-consuming for veterinary clinics. That’s where GlobalVetLink comes in.


Streamlining CVI Creation with GlobalVetLink

GlobalVetLink offers a comprehensive platform designed to simplify the creation, submission, and management of veterinary health certificates. Traditionally, filling out a CVI involves a lot of paperwork and administrative follow-up with state animal health authorities. This manual process often leaves clinics spending hours ensuring compliance and making sure the paperwork is submitted correctly.

With GlobalVetLink, this process is streamlined:

  • Easy Online CVI Creation: GlobalVetLink’s platform allows veterinarians to quickly generate digital CVIs from any internet-connected device. The process is straightforward, guiding users through the necessary fields and ensuring the certificate is complete before submission.
  • Automatic State Submissions: One of the most time-saving features of GlobalVetLink is its automatic submission of CVIs to the relevant state authorities. Instead of faxing or mailing documents, GlobalVetLink sends completed certificates directly to the appropriate state, ensuring that clinics are always in compliance and saving valuable time.

MyVetLink: Easy Access for Pet Owners

Once a veterinary health certificate is created, it’s equally important that pet owners can access and manage these documents with ease. GlobalVetLink’s MyVetLink service provides a seamless way for veterinarians to share CVIs with their clients.

Through MyVetLink, pet owners can:

  • Access Health Certificates Online: After the veterinarian finalizes the CVI through the GlobalVetLink platform, the document is automatically available for the pet owner in their MyVetLink account. This reduces the need for paper copies and ensures the certificate is always accessible, whether it’s needed for travel or personal records.
  • Share Certificates as Needed: Pet owners can easily share their veterinary health certificates with airlines, transport companies, or border authorities via MyVetLink. This not only improves pet owners' convenience but also enhances the overall client experience with the veterinary clinic.

Benefits for Clinics and Pet Owners

By using GlobalVetLink, veterinary clinics can reduce administrative workload, improve compliance, and enhance client satisfaction. Pet owners benefit from easy access to their documents and peace of mind knowing that all health certificates are properly completed and available when needed.


If your clinic is looking to streamline the process of managing vet health certificates, GlobalVetLink offers an intuitive, time-saving solution. By adopting this digital approach, clinics can focus more on patient care and less on paperwork, while pet owners can travel with confidence.
