How do I know the requirements for international travel?

The United States Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Services maintains a database of instructions for traveling with your pet to another country. For more information visit https://www.aphis.usda.gov/pet-travel/us-to-another-country-export

​

Who will take care of my pet?

A licensed veterinarian with USDA Accreditation will examine your pet, administer any required treatments, and complete any required paperwork. Depending on your individual needs they may be accompanied by a trained veterinary assistant or Licensed Veterinary Technician.

​

Who is responsible for understanding travel requirements?

While Travel Pet can provide expert advice for your travel journey the ultimate responsibility for importation of a pet belongs to the pet's owner. We have no control over the requirements of other countries and all clients must acknowledge these requirements are subject to change with notice.
