How can I add my pet’s microchip to their profile?
Scan the QR code found on the microchip packaging that was implanted by your pet’s veterinarian and follow the instructions to activate and register it to your pet’s profile.

The self-guided and paperless registration is meant to automate and avoid hundreds of thousands of encoding backlogs by your veterinarian or their microchip vendor. Through the one-click paperless activation, your pet’s health records and safety profile are instantly tagged with their microchip number.
Although this level of security may limit immediate ease of access, it is a vital step in protecting the credibility of veterinary records such as the minor medical procedure of implanting a microchip. The restrictions in place are not barriers, but rather purposeful measures to prevent fraudulent claims and ensure that every eHealth Card entry reflects genuine clinical action from a licensed professional.
Your veterinarian is not yet using the eHealth Card? Here’s an option.
As the eHealth Card has gained widespread interest, we have been committed to expanding accessibility while retaining uncompromised standards. One innovation we’re currently piloting for select users is a Verify a Microchip Certificate workflow that converts existing paper-based proof of implanted microchip into their digital counterparts. Through this process, you can submit their paper records for professional authentication here and transcription by a partnered veterinarian in the eHealth Card network. This ensures continuity of documented care and preserves the credibility of even the most minor medical procedures.
This initiative is a stepping stone toward a more inclusive feature currently in development. Soon, pet owners whose veterinarians are not yet integrated with our network will be empowered to scan their paper proof of implanted microchip. The digital record will then undergo an automatic transcription and subsequent verification by a licensed veterinarian within the Pawnec eHealth Card network. This enhancement aims to remove access barriers while maintaining our strict standards for veterinary authentication.
These continuous advancements underscore our ongoing commitment to balancing expanded access to transformative technology with the enduring promise of trust, integrity, and protection guaranteed by the Vet Verified mark. Our vision at Pawnec is to empower every pet owner to take an active role in their pet’s health while relying on a system where every record can be trusted.
