US departure to USAKA/Kwajalein only: selected APHIS pet documents, treatment and registration conditions obtained; not nationwide entry.
Transport conditions
Dog / Cat · In the cabin / Accompanied hold baggage / Separate cargo service
APHIS states all pets imported to USAKA enter via Hawaii and complete the mandatory Hawaiian quarantine requirements as necessary. This is a USAKA route condition, not a national rule for every Marshall Islands arrival; it does not state every pet must spend 120 days in Hawaii or any fixed number of days at Kwajalein.
Selected healthy adult private dogs/cats from the continental United States to USAKA at Kwajalein, with the owner already eligible for the actual base stay/entry and the pet’s route accepted by the base. APHIS’s page modified 30 July 2025 is specifically USAKA, not Majuro, Ebeye or the whole republic. Route via Hawaii must satisfy the applicable Hawaiian requirements; no fixed quarantine duration is inferred. Transport modes do not establish airline or base carriage permission. Confirm current RMI permit/quarantine and base approval for the actual journey. Other origins, other islands and ordinary tourism are not covered.

Confirm the base’s present approval, current RMI import permission/quarantine, Hawaiian onward documents, actual airline route and pet carriage.
