In my language there's a word which is a kind of register for dogs

[Imola]

Hi,
I'd like to put an ad on the net about my dogs. But I don't know the right words.
In my language there's a word which is a kind of register for dogs. What is it in English? And is there another word for dog passport? It means that the dogs are healthy and michro-chipped. Help, please.
Thanks very much.

Hi Imola

In my area, people are required to get "dog licenses" for their dogs:
Look at this, for example.

If you plan to take your dog with you to a foreign country, you can get a "pet passport", for example:

When I moved from Germany back to the US with my two cats, I had to get a "pet passport" for each cat.
