Embarking on a journey to Canada and planning to bring your beloved pet along? Relocating with your furry friend to this breathtaking and pet-friendly country is an exciting adventure. To ensure a seamless and stress-free experience, it’s essential to understand the regulations and requirements for pet shipping to Canada. This guide explores key details about pet relocation to Canada and how Airpets International can be your trusted partner throughout the process.
Canada is known for its stunning landscapes, diverse cities, and welcoming attitude toward pets. From expansive national parks to urban neighborhoods with pet-friendly amenities, it’s a paradise for pets and their owners. Before relocating your pet to Canada, ensure compliance with the country’s import requirements. These typically include microchipping, up-to-date vaccinations, and proper documentation. Understanding these guidelines will help ensure your pet’s smooth transition.
If you’re planning to move to Canada with your beloved pet, here are the key requirements to consider:
Canada requires all pets to be microchipped with an ISO 11784/11785-compliant microchip. Ensure the microchip is registered with accurate and up-to-date owner information for hassle-free entry.
Your pet must have up-to-date vaccinations. For dogs, required vaccinations often include rabies, distemper, and parvovirus. Cats typically require vaccinations against rabies and feline panleukopenia. A health certificate issued by a certified veterinarian within 10 days of travel is mandatory.
Rabies antibody tests are not required for pets traveling from rabies-free or controlled-risk countries. However, confirm specific requirements based on your departure country.
While an import permit is not generally required for pets traveling from the U.S. or other specific countries, verify requirements based on your location to avoid delays.
Canada does not mandate quarantine for pets arriving from most countries if all entry requirements are met.
An appropriate travel crate ensures your pet’s safety and comfort. Crates must meet international standards, providing enough space for your pet to stand, turn around, and lie down comfortably.
