Veterinary Medicines Directorate
The VMDs online services will be unavailable from the evening of Friday 10 March for essential maintenance. We expect that all services will resume by the morning of Monday 13 March.
The services that will be temporarily unavailable:
- Special Import Service
- Export Certificates
- Animal Adverse Reaction Reporting
- Human Adverse Reaction Reporting
- Microchip Adverse Event Reporting
- Product Information Database
You should obtain an import certificate in advance if you think you will need to import/use an imported medicine during this period.
In urgent cases where the VMD has previously issued a certificate for the animal(s) under your care, you may purchase and use an imported veterinary medicine prior to obtaining a certificate from the VMD. This is a special dispensation which only applies to the VMD online system during this essential maintenance period. You should obtain an import certificate retrospectively as soon as possible.
