Add Animal ID microchip search to your website

Let your visitors check whether a pet's microchip is registered in the Animal ID global registry, right from your own website. The simplest way is a small search box that opens the results on animal-id.net — no account, API key, or approval needed.

How it works

A visitor types a microchip number and clicks Search. A new tab opens the Animal ID lookup showing whether that chip is registered.

Add it to your website

Paste this HTML where you want the search box to appear, and replace YOUR-WEBSITE.com with your own domain:

<!-- Animal ID microchip search -->
<form onsubmit="event.preventDefault();
    var chip = this.chip.value.trim().replace(/\s+/g, '');
    if (chip) window.open(
      'https://animal-id.net/pets/lookup?search_input=' + encodeURIComponent(chip)
        + '&source=YOUR-WEBSITE.com',
      '_blank');">
  <input name="chip" inputmode="numeric" placeholder="Enter microchip number">
  <button type="submit">Search</button>
</form>

Style the input and button to match your site — it's plain HTML.

Good to know

• Microchip numbers are usually 15 digits (ISO 11784/11785); older 9- or 10-digit chips work too.
• The box opens the lookup in a new tab, so visitors stay on your site.
• No registration or API key is required — it's a public search.
• Keep source set to your website's domain, so searches coming from your site are credited to you.
• Prefer a same-tab redirect? Replace window.open(url, '_blank') with window.location = url.
