Microchip Scans

Explains what a microchip scan record is in the PadsPass app and the difference between unverified and verified scans.

A microchip scan in the PadsPass app is a record that a licensed veterinary professional scanned your pet's existing microchip during an appointment.

You can add a microchip scan to your pet's profile at any time:

  • Unverified: Saved for your personal record keeping.

  • Verified (when available with your plan and submission): Indicates the scan record you submitted was reviewed as part of travel-related verification for the Digital Pet Passport plan.

PadsPass helps you store and organize these records, but final travel requirements can vary by airline, destination, and authorities.
