Chipworks is a UK-based, fully Defra compliant registration and reunification database for household pets, companion animals and other species. Chipworks has been developed in conjunction with the operators of the successful Fido database in Ireland. Fido has been providing registration services since 2005. Chipworks is also an associate of EPN (EuroPetNet) which consolidates member databases across Europe to help with the identification and reunification of animals. Through this collaboration, Chipworks registrations can be searched throughout Europe, ensuring that pets travelling outside the UK are still traceable.
