The global pet microchips market size was estimated at USD 412.3 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 954.9 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 10.04% from 2025 to 2033. The industry is witnessing strong growth due to growing awareness about pet safety, the rising number of pet owners who view their pets as family, and the ongoing improvements in veterinary hospital and clinic infrastructure.
Moreover, according to an article published by euronews, in June 2025, the ongoing approval by Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) to mandate microchipping and registration for all cats and dogs across the EU is poised to be a major driver for the industry. This change is expected to greatly increase the need for microchips, scanners, and registration services, as millions of pets in Europe that don't yet have chips will now need to be identified and registered. Having the same rules across the EU will make pet identification simpler, consistent, and effective. It will help stop illegal breeding and trading while improving the safety and tracking of pets. Because of this, more pet owners are expected to get their animals microchipped, leading to higher demand for microchips and services from manufacturers and veterinary clinics.
Moreover, the integration of microchipping requirements for imported pets from non-EU countries will further expand market opportunities. This regulation will help create centralized databases that make pet ownership more transparent and accountable across the EU. As national systems become more connected under EU rules and platforms like Europenet link regional registries, the need for uniform and reliable microchip technologies will increase. This will encourage companies to develop better products and services, further strengthening the pet identification system and boosting the growth of the European pet microchip market in the coming years.
Furthermore, as per the article published by euronews, in August 2025, the cost of veterinary care in Europe has seen a steep rise over the past decade, with prices increasing by more than 30% since 2015. Data from Eurostat shows that the cost of veterinary services has gone up by more than 30% in the eurozone and almost 37% across the EU, while overall inflation increased by about 30%. This means pet care is becoming more expensive than the general cost of living, making it harder for some pet owners to manage expenses. At the same time, the higher spending shows that people are choosing better-quality vet care and are more aware of their pets' health and safety. As more owners focus on prevention to avoid big medical bills, As more pet owners place a higher priority on prevention in order to save money on expensive medical bills, microchipping pets is growing in popularity and making sense. Pets can be easily and consistently identified for the rest of their lives with microchips. They save money on recovery expenses, assist owners in acting properly, and facilitate the search for lost pets. Because of these benefits, more people are choosing to microchip their pets, which is helping the industry grow.
