We supply veterinary clinics, animal hospitals, farms and veterinary product distributors. This group covers veterinary medicines and vaccines, clinic consumables and surgical instruments, pet food, feed additives and care products.

Like medicines for human use, veterinary medicines and vaccines are subject to marketing authorisation and good manufacturing practice rules; they are not shipped without a marketing authorisation or import permit in the destination country. For pet food and feed products, the health certificate and establishment registration required by the destination country's animal health and food safety authority are decisive. We clarify these requirements with the buyer before ordering.

Questions about this group

How does the marketing authorisation requirement work for veterinary medicines?

Veterinary medicines and vaccines require a marketing authorisation or import permit in the destination country. The application is the responsibility of the buyer or the local authorisation holder; we obtain the GMP certificate, certificate of analysis and other required documents from the manufacturer.

Which documents are required to import pet food?

Usually an official health certificate, a certificate of analysis, a certificate of origin and approval of the production establishment in the destination country. Requirements vary by country, so we draw up the list together before ordering.

Can farms buy in bulk?

Yes. If you send us the product, pack size, quantity and delivery point, we will prepare a quote together with a shipment plan that suits the product's storage conditions.
