For international pet shippers are required: a veterinary certificate and vaccination against rabies (it is valid from 10 days from the date of vaccination and not later than 9 months). Many countries require inoculations were made at least three months prior to departure. Documentation procedures before a trip is: an animal and veterinary passport for 2-3 days prior to trip you go to a veterinary station, where you will receive a veterinary certificate.
On departure, before registering, visit the Border Veterinary Control of airport or train station, where on the basis of previously collected documents you need to get an international veterinary certificate. The dog of any breed and size should be muzzled.
When booking a ticket you must warn that you will fly with animal. Canine or feline ticket you can buy at the airport. Its value calculated as the cost of excess baggage, based on the weight of the animal, but first-class fare, even if the dog will fly in the luggage compartment. On the train a dog can stay with the owner if other passengers don’t mind about it. Otherwise you will have to buy the whole compartment, plus a dog ticket.
Many airlines have restrictions on the transportation of pets, for example, in one cabin with passengers allowed to fly only four dogs. Cats should be in special bags (baskets). Before the flight, at the request of the owner, the dog can have a soothing shot. But in some countries you may not be allowed on the plane, if it considers that the cell is too small and the animal in it uncomfortable. In such a case you would have to buy a more comfortable cell and a special soothing to the animal.
In some states there is a ban on the importation of certain animals.
In Uruguay – a ban on the import of all birds
In France and Israel is not allowed to bring in puppies and kittens up to three months
In Saudi Arabia is forbidden to import chickens, turkeys, pigeons, ducks, geese, parrots…
In many countries, imported animals quarantined:
- in Taiwan and Cuba
- 14 days – in the USA
- 1 Month – Sweden
- 4 months – Malta, Cyprus and the UK – for 6 months.
All this is not for free (ranging from 150 to 500 dollars). Any airline can get help on the rules of transportation of pets. Upon check in the hotel (where permitted), a tourist from the animals will have to rent double room, as it is believed that any living creatures need their own living space. The hotel has details of your nearest veterinary hospitals, since the departure will require help from a veterinarian that the animal is not sick, and look about spiked dog collars.
