There is no specific sterilization traceability mandate for veterinary practices in Germany — but surgical clinics that sterilize instruments are demonstrating the standard that pet owners expect.
Germany has no specific sterilization traceability legislation for veterinary practices. The general veterinary professional codes (Berufsordnung) of the Landestierärztekammern require hygiene measures but no explicit reprocessing documentation. However, veterinary clinics performing surgery increasingly use autoclaves as best practice. DIN EN 13060 applies to autoclaves in veterinary practices. Digital sterilization traceability demonstrates professional rigor.
