Easy to get wrong on this route
- Taking the rabies blood test too late — it must be at least 90 days before export.

- Booking the arrival inspection less than 5 days ahead.

Watch out
- No quarantine only if your pet has lived with you at the same address for more than 6 months and arrives less than 5 days after you. Otherwise: at least 10 days of home quarantine.
- A captain’s declaration, signed by the airline, travels with the pet.
- Pets must be at least 12 weeks old at export. Some dog breeds can’t be imported — check AVS’s list first.
