Pet Travel Advisors: Pet Entry Checker

What a country asks for a dog or cat moving from Canada or the US, and the earliest arrival date its rules allow.

Pet Entry Checker answers two questions for a dog or cat moving from Canada or the United States: what does the destination country ask for, and what is the earliest arrival date its rules allow? Choose where you are moving from, the destination, and dog or cat. The answer appears straight away in the extension: • The earliest arrival the rules allow, worked out from the waits between the steps, such as the days after a rabies shot or a blood test for rabies antibodies. Where the rules set no waiting period, it says so. • At a glance: whether an import permit is needed, quarantine on arrival, and how many steps there are to plan. • What the country requires for your pet: microchip, rabies shots, the antibody blood test, health certificate and endorsement, advance notice, permits, parasite treatments, quarantine, arrival airports, age limits and breed rules, where the destination sets them. • A step-by-step plan with the dates each step can fall on. • Already started? Add the dates of anything done or booked, such as the microchip or a rabies shot, and a planned arrival. The plan counts from your dates, and a date that breaks a rule is flagged with that rule. Every rule comes from official sources, such as CFIA, USDA APHIS, CDC, the European Commission and the destination's own animal health authority, listed with the date they were checked. The dates are the earliest the rules allow, not a booking or a promise. Confirm the rules with the authorities and your vet before you book anything. Destinations covered (24): Australia, Brazil, Canada (from the United States), China, Colombia, France, Greece, Hawaii, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand (from the United States), Philippines, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Türkiye, United Kingdom and United States (from Canada). A move from Canada is shown in Canadian spelling and date style; a move from the United States in US spelling and date style. From a result you can also open the destination's full guide, open the same answer in the full checker on our website, or ask Pet Travel Advisors for a quote for the move. These links open in a new tab. The checker itself works inside the extension, offline too, with the rules it carries. Privacy: the extension collects no user data. Your answers stay in your browser. The only request it makes is to download the latest rules file from pettraveladvisors.com, at most once a day.
