What is the expiration date listed on my barcode sticker?

The expiration date on your pet's barcode sticker refers to the date that the microchip must be implanted by. It relates to the sterilization procedures to ensure that the microchip can be implanted by that date.

Once the microchip is implanted this date has no meaning and you do not need to be concerned that the microchip will expire or need to be replaced.
