Printable vaccination record for your dog or cat

Print this one-page record, fill it in from the vet's card, and keep it with the card. It is your family's own copy, not a certificate: Delhi's MCD, Mumbai's BMC and Air India accept only a vet's certificate, signed and stamped by a registered vet ¹²³⁵. Use the sheet to see at a glance what was given, which batch went in, and when the next dose is due.

Not a certificate: Offices and airlines accept only the vet's own certificate, signed and stamped¹²³⁵
Copy from: The vet's card, and the label from each vaccine vial⁶
Each line: Date, vaccine name, batch number, next due date and the vet⁶⁷
Why the batch number: India's quarantine service wants the vaccine's name, batch number and date on the health card of a dog entering India⁷
Keep records: BMC's guidelines say owners must keep their pet's vaccination records⁴

A family copy, not a certificate

For registration or travel, show the vet's own certificate, signed and stamped ¹⁵. Keep this sheet with it.

How to fill it in

Copy each vaccine from the vet's card: the date, the vaccine's name as printed, and the next due date the vet wrote.
At each visit, ask the vet to stick the label from the vaccine vial on the card. Vet guidelines recommend peel-off vaccine labels for exactly this kind of record ⁶. Copy the batch number from that label.
Write the vet's name and council registration number. MCD's sample certificate asks for this number ¹.
Photograph the card and this sheet after every visit, and share the photos with the family. Card missing? See how to get a duplicate.

What the vet's certificate should show

Printed on the letterhead of a registered vet, with the vet's signature and stamp ¹.
A photo of the dog with its owner, attested by the vet ¹.
The owner's name, address and mobile number, and the dog's name, gender, breed, colour and any identification mark ¹.
The date of the rabies vaccination, the next due date, and the vet's council registration number ¹.
In Mumbai, BMC wants rabies and leptospirosis certificates, signed and stamped ³.
WSAVA, the world association of small-animal vets, suggests a certificate also say how long each vaccine is expected to protect. If yours doesn't, ask the vet to write the next due date ⁶.

Where to keep it

In one folder with the vet's card, your registration or licence and any travel papers.
A photo of every page on at least two family phones.
In Mumbai, BMC asks owners to keep the housing society up to date on the licence and vaccinations ⁴.
Going on a train or flight? Take the vet's originals; Air India checks them at check-in ⁵. See the travel fitness certificate.

No Indian rule sets a format for a family's own record. This layout follows what MCD's sample certificate shows and what WSAVA asks vets to record ¹⁶.
