Electronic Signatures
GVL health documents feature official and verifiable electronic signatures of the issuing veterinarians and resulting diagnostic lab technicians. These e-signatures are approved for official animal movement in all 50 U.S. states. When inspecting a GVL electronic document, the e-signature should be clear and not interfere with the embedded watermark on the document. Should you have any questions or concerns about the validity of an e-signature on a GVL document, contact the originating veterinarian for verification or the office of the state veterinarian.
Digital Photos
Rather than hand rendered drawings of animal markings, GVL health documents, including EIA/Coggins, feature full-color, digital photos of animals. For equine EIA users, it is required that these photos clearly display the animal's left side, right side and front. Be sure to determine that the photos on the document match the written description of color, markings and other distinguishing criteria. Visual verification of the legitimacy of the photos on digital health documents is required in some states. Please refer to your state regulations regarding the inspection of these documents.
Veterinarian Contact Information
All GVL health documents will include contact information for the originating veterinarian, including a phone number. Should you question the validity of information in a GVL health document, please contact the veterinarian at the phone number provided.
