Old email on microchip record

Pet Microchip Registered to an Old Email Address

If you have lost access to the email used for your microchip account, avoid creating a duplicate record. Identify the database and ask it to recover or update the existing account.

Prepare before contacting support

  • Microchip number
  • Pet name and description
  • Old email address if known
  • Your current contact details
  • Any registration, vet or adoption paperwork
PetChipHelp is an independent guidance service. We can help identify the database and explain the process, but official microchip records are changed by the database provider that holds the registration.

Have the microchip number?

Check which database appears to hold the record, then go straight to the right provider.
