Health Certificates
Our lab prepares health certificates for Interstate (within the U.S.) travel and International travel to Canada. For any questions, the lab can be contacted at (360) 354-5095, Option 3, Option 1.
A negative Coggins (Equine Infectious Anemia) test is needed for travel; the test is good for 6 months for international travel and 12 months for travel to most states within the U.S. Please expect a turnaround time of 24-72 hours for a Coggins test.
