EU pet passport

Here's a great video from Stena Line Ferries that explains how to get your pet approved under the PETS scheme if you are traveling out of the UK on vacation. In this instance, the pet owner is going from the UK to Holland with his Jack Russell, Eddie.

After two years in the Czech Republic, we are returning to the US with our cats. Does the EU pet passport, which each cat has, replace the health certificate requested by airlines? Our vet seems to think it does. There's a page that he would sign that says the animal is in good health and able to withstand carriage. Is he correct? Thank you.
