Hong Kong vet fees, as published

Only fees that clinics and organisations publish on their own sites are listed here, with the exact wording and a link to the source so you can check before you call. Prices were read in October 2026; an organisation that publishes no price is not listed, and no estimate is filled in for it.

• Vet consultation3 publishers

  The consultation fee usually covers the history and a physical exam only; medication, lab work, imaging and surgery are charged on top. Night, emergency and referral slots usually cost more than daytime, so state the reason and the time when booking, and ask whether the fee is credited against same-day treatment.

• Cat core vaccine (FVRCP)3 publishers

  The FVRCP vaccine is a core vaccine: kittens usually get three doses and adults are boosted as needed. The price often includes the consultation and a record card, but rabies and FeLV are usually charged separately. Before booking, confirm whether a health check is included, and how many doses are needed and at what interval.

• Dog core vaccine (DHPPi)3 publishers

  DHPPi is the core dog vaccine: puppies usually get three doses, then periodic boosters. Some clinics include the consultation in the price, while rabies with the dog licence and leptospirosis (L4) are usually charged separately. Ask about doses, intervals and how the vaccination record is kept.

• Rabies vaccine with dog licence3 publishers

  Hong Kong law requires dogs over five months old to be vaccinated against rabies and licensed; a licence runs three years. Clinic prices usually include handling the licence and the certificate, while the government charges one fee covering microchip, vaccine and licence together. When comparing, check whether the licence and paperwork are included, not just the vaccine.

• Male cat neutering4 publishers

  Neutering a male cat is routine surgery; the price spread comes mostly from anaesthesia, pre-operative bloodwork and the weight cap. Some packages include the consultation, anaesthesia and blood tests, while aftercare drugs or a collar are extra. Ask how weight is banded, whether pre-op tests are included, and how a retained testicle is priced.

• Female cat spaying4 publishers

  Spaying a female cat is abdominal surgery and usually costs more than neutering a male; the spread comes from anaesthesia, pre-op bloodwork, suture technique and the weight cap. Some packages include pain relief and a collar, with extra charges for a cat in season or pregnant. Ask about weight bands, pre-op tests and post-op rechecks.

• Male dog neutering3 publishers

  Neutering a male dog is priced mainly by weight band, and anaesthesia plus pre-op tests are the two biggest variables; some organisations quote by size only, without splitting by sex. Ask which band applies, whether anaesthesia and bloodwork are included, and how a retained testicle is handled.

• Female dog spaying3 publishers

  Spaying a female dog is abdominal surgery, usually priced above neutering and banded by weight. The spread comes from anaesthesia, pre-op bloodwork, sutures and whether a stay is included. Ask which band applies, whether pre-op tests and aftercare drugs are included, and whether large dogs carry a higher anaesthetic charge.

• Dog and cat dental scaling3 publishers

  A scaling price usually covers anaesthesia, scaling and polishing, but dental X-rays, extractions and pre-op bloodwork are often charged separately, and weight and dental condition affect the total. Ask what the quote includes, how a mid-procedure extraction is priced and consented, and request a written estimate.

• Microchip implant3 publishers

  Microchipping places an ISO or AVID chip under the skin at the neck; most clinics do it the same day and the fee usually includes the chip and implantation. The government's single fee covers chip, rabies vaccine and licence together, so check whether registration or licensing is included rather than comparing the implant alone.
