Can I take a dog when traveling abroad?

1. Necessary exit procedures

If you want to take your pet to live abroad, you must leave enough time to handle the required certification materials. First of all, before leaving the country, go to the animal and plant quarantine office at the port of departure for inspection and provide relevant documents (such as vaccination certificate, etc.). ). If the pets pass the quarantine inspection, the port animal and plant quarantine office will issue an animal health certificate as the quarantine certificate for the pets when they leave the country. Then, contact the embassies of other countries to verify the exact requirements of that country. It is very important to ask a veterinarian to check your pet before leaving the country, and to vaccinate your pet against rabies.

transport

When you leave the country by plane, you should contact the flight you take to understand the special requirements and management rules in this regard. Traveling with pets on the same plane is simple and convenient. According to the flight requirements, pets should be put in boxes of specified size. The owner should contact the freight department of the flight to find out the exact diameter (including the position of the air hole on the box).

Step one:

Necessary information for isolation:

(1) rabies immunization certificate issued by animal husbandry and veterinary station or designated pet hospital at or above the county level (rabies vaccine injection date to departure date shall not exceed 30 days);

(2) The original pet health certificate;

(3) transport equipment disinfection certificate (air box or homemade animal cage disinfection certificate);

(4) Completion inspection report. After passing the inspection, the inspection and quarantine institution shall issue an animal health certificate.

Step two:

Buy a special air box for pets, call the airline three days in advance to book the cabin and take the flight by yourself. By the way, go to the civil aviation cargo terminal to find out where the quarantine certificate needs to be submitted (generally, there are agencies near the airport that can take money to get the certificate without injection).

Send the pet to the airport freight station 3 hours in advance on the same day to go through the formalities, pay the fee and buy insurance. Note: Never let pets pass the X-ray machine, just pass the box.

Then go to the destination pick-up center and pick up the plane with identification.

Aviation cage requirements:

Generally speaking, cages are required to be made of steel bars, the chassis and its surroundings should be surrounded by iron sheets, and only the upper part is allowed to be used as a vent. It must also be tied under the chassis with sacks or cotton pads to avoid leaking urine and polluting other goods. Both sides of the cage need handles for extraction (which can be made of lead wire), and the opening of the cage needs to be tied tightly with lead wire.

Remarks: Before a long trip, pets should complete all vaccinations to ensure safety. Fix the water dispenser in the aviation cage, the bigger the better, and the pet will be thirsty easily during the trip. Wear warm clothes for pets in winter to prevent freezing.

Tips: It is recommended to take the plane of FASCO or Northwest Airlines. They will be very concerned about your pet. The plane has set up a "priority pet care service" so that they can travel safely and comfortably. Northwest Airlines provides many ways to carry animals: luggage, goods and valuable packages "VIP" (very important packages). If the passenger's dog, pet or bird is not big, it can be placed in a pet cage, which can be placed under the passenger's seat. Northwest Airlines allows these pets to enter the cabin.

The charges for various pet transportation services are different. Please contact the airline reservation department of your choice to check the transportation costs and arrange services for your pet.
