Welcome to VEHCS

The Veterinary Export Health Certification System (VEHCS)  provides core functionality to automate the creation, endorsement, payment and printing of USDA Veterinary Export Health Certificates based on the Model Veterinary Certificates for International Trade in Live Animals, Hatching Eggs and Products of Animal Origin.

VEHCS allows you to quickly create and submit certificates for Veterinary Export Health Certificates for the export of live animals/animal products from the United States.  The Web-based VEHCS application is developed to meet the following objectives:

VEHCS facilitates the work flow of the certificates from creation to printing and enables users, based on user role and organization, access to the certificate as it progresses to a final Completed status.

This Help is designed both as a course in using VEHCS and as an ongoing reference while you are working with certificates.  To view the Help file, click the Need Help link at the top right of the page.
