The VMDs online services will be unavailable from 8am on 18 November due to essential site maintenance. We expect that all services will resume by 5pm.
The services that will be temporarily unavailable:
- Special Import Service, including access to the new Private Beta SIS service. More information on this new service is available onVMD Connect
- Export Certificates
- Animal Adverse Reaction Reporting
- Human Adverse Reaction Reporting

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.
