24PetWatch

andy i might be wrong in saying this because ive read so much stuff the last few days but arent the 15 digits the iso's that we need and the 10 digit regular ones........geeze i hope i dont add to the stress here but i thought i read that somewhere......might i ask when you are moving over....steff

Just got back from the vet to microchip my two other pets. So I now have:

2 x HomeAgain chips with 15 digits (should be ISO)
1 x 24PetWatch with 10 digits

All three were read by the vet using this scanner: http://www.classypets.com/Merchant5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=CPTS&Product_Code=MICRO009&Category_Code=PTSMICRO, which is the HomeAgain WorldScan.

I guess I will rent one of these when we travel, just to be sure.

Andy

well, good news is if you buy one, I am sure you will have no trouble selling it back to someone on this site

well ive decided that maybe with all these scanners we have to buy on here we can start up our own scanner rental business.......lol

andy thank god i dont have to buy that one......geeze that thing is expensive

so now my vet has ordered a scanner for the 15 digit 24 petwatch..........has anyone had those read in the uk.........ill contact defra next week if no one is clear on that

Judith: The microchip currently implanted in your pet is ISO compliant and as such can be read by most international standard scanners. We would encourage you to register your pet's microchip ID with a Microchip Database Registration Service in the country that you are moving to and obtain a collar tag from their company. This will aid any shelter or Third Party that finds your pet in contacting the proper registry.

UPDATE ON 24PETWATCH INFO:  i contacted them directly with my two microchip numbers and the above is their live chat reply.
