Why a microchip ?
ID Chips strongly recommends the microchip for many reasons. A microchip injection is painless and totally effective for the identification during your pet's entire life. In addition, in 2012, the microchip will be the only identification method authorized and even obligatory to cross the borders with a dog, cat or ferret. However, as we care for animals' welfare, we also register tattooed animals until then.
We use leading edge technology
The animal security and protection is our main concern. For this reason, we use the most up-to-date technology to maximise the chances to give back a lost animal to his owner.
The microchip identification that we use as well as the uniqueness of the number assigned to the animal give all guarantee of reliability. We use an up-to-date information system. We improve it continuously. We emphasize the data security so as to provide the best service in all circumstances.
