What are the implications of travelling with a microchipped pet between Canada and the USA?
There are no specific requirements for companion animals travelling with their owners across the Canada-USA border. Any AVID reader within the USA will be able to identify any Canadian implanted AVID microchip. To facilitate quicker identification, the AVID microchip is completely compatible with all low frequency scanners and easily traceable anywhere in Canada and the United States. Most readers are now universal.
