Arrival procedures
Dog / Cat · In the cabin / Accompanied hold baggage / Separate cargo service
Personal pets must be clinically healthy, non-commercial and accompanied by their owner or duly authorised person. Normally at most five dogs/cats; the exception for more than five requires animals older than six months, event participation/training and written registration evidence, and is outside this checklist.
Only healthy vaccinated adult US dogs/cats for non-commercial movement, normally at most five, accompanied by owner or duly authorised responsible person. This is not the young-animal or event exception; permits and current border arrangements need separate confirmation.

Use a microchip conforming to ISO 11784 and readable with an ISO 11785 device, or a clear tattoo applied before 3 July 2011. The national page requires rabies vaccination after chipping. Record identification/application or reading date in the certificate.

For adult dogs/cats, keep rabies vaccination valid. At least twenty-one days must elapse from primary vaccination to entry; subsequent vaccinations must be within the previous validity period. Young animals under sixteen weeks use separate conditions and are not resolved here.

The national entry page requires rabies antibody testing for animals over twelve weeks: at least 0.5 IU/ml, first testing not more than twelve months and not less than three months before departure. The currently linked US model gives the same three-to-twelve-month window. Older satisfactory tests with uninterrupted vaccination use a separate confirmation item.

Rules depend on the route, animal and operating carrier. Confirm your own journey with the relevant authority and airline.
Applicable conditions
The national page and APHIS say a satisfactory titer need not be repeated if all later rabies boosters remain within previous validity. The linked US certificate still states testing three-to-twelve months before departure and has no explicit older-report exception. Confirm how an older result is certified with APHIS and the destination authority; do not schedule unnecessary retesting or assume the unmodified form is acceptable.

If a dog has received Echinococcus granulosus treatment, record it in the international certificate, with product, date/time and veterinarian. The national page and model do not establish treatment as universal mandatory care; choose the treated/untreated branch. This is granulosus, not the multilocularis wording of other countries.

Use the linked international certificate issued by a USDA-accredited veterinarian and endorsed by APHIS; carry the ink-signed, embossed original. Signature/stamp colour differs from text. Confirm certificate timing separately: no general ten-day validity is established by this model. Handle animals under the required welfare conditions and use transport preventing leakage of excrement, bedding or feed.
