The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) is making responsible pet ownership more accessible than ever by launching a new digital gateway for pet registration and microchipping. Announced on April 1, 2026, by BMA Spokesman Aekvarunyoo Amrapala, the initiative adds a dedicated feature to the popular Traffy Fondue platform, allowing residents to book essential veterinary services for their dogs and cats with just a few taps on their smartphones. While bookings are currently live, the BMA’s proactive mobile veterinary units are scheduled to hit the streets starting April 21, 2026, to provide on-site assistance across the city’s various neighborhoods.
Navigating the new system is designed to be seamless. Residents can simply add the @TraffyFondue account on LINE, select the “BMA Dog and Cat Registration” menu, and provide basic details about their pets. A city official will then follow up within three days to finalize an appointment. The service is structured strategically based on the number of animals requiring care; for instance, when 30 or more pets are gathered in a single household or immediate area, the BMA guarantees a mobile unit visit within 15 days. In cases with fewer than 30 pets, district offices will collect requests from nearby residents over a 30-day period; if the total number meets the required threshold, a mobile unit will be dispatched to the area, or owners may instead be advised to bring their pets to one of the ten Public Health Veterinary service points.
Beyond the Traffy Fondue integration, the BMA continues to offer flexibility through the QueQ application for fixed-point appointments and traditional mobile unit calendars for those who prefer to track local visits. For animals that are already microchipped, the city has introduced a fully digital registration process via the ThaiD application, which issues a digital pet identification card upon verification. By lowering the barriers to these services, the BMA aims to foster a culture of long-term shared responsibility. This tech-forward approach ensures that Bangkok remains a sustainably livable city for every resident, regardless of whether they have two legs or four.
