Many of our clients travel with their pets. It may be a weekend on Long Island, a business trip, or pleasure travel to anywhere in the world. Over the last several years, most countries have imposed stricter entry requirements on pet travel, usually requiring a health certificate and a current rabies vaccination as a minimum. Some countries also require microchip identification and the completion of a health certificate by a U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)–accredited veterinarian. Still others require blood testing for rabies antibodies several months in advance. If you plan travel with your pet, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can help you with the proper planning.
For a list of pet travel requirements by country, go to the USDA Web site and select the first letter of the country you plan to visit.
