Planning a journey to South America and want to bring your furry companion along? Relocating with your pet to this vibrant and culturally rich continent is an adventure you’ll never forget. To ensure a seamless and stress-free relocation, understanding the specific regulations and requirements for pet shipping to South America is essential. This guide highlights key details about pet relocation and how Airpets International can assist every step of the way.
South America is a continent of breathtaking diversity, featuring lush rainforests, bustling cities, and pet-friendly cultures. Countries like Brazil, Argentina, and Chile are known for their welcoming environments for pets. Before relocating, ensure you are familiar with entry requirements, which may include health certifications, vaccinations, and microchipping. These steps will ensure a smooth transition for you and your pet.
When relocating with your pet to South America, consider these key requirements:
Most South American countries require pets to be microchipped with an ISO-compliant microchip. It’s vital to register the microchip with current owner information for a seamless entry process.
Ensure your pet is up-to-date on vaccinations. Dogs typically need rabies, distemper, and parvovirus vaccines, while cats require rabies and feline panleukopenia vaccinations. A health certificate issued by an accredited veterinarian is mandatory for entry, typically valid for 10 days.
Some countries may require rabies antibody titers for pets arriving from high-risk rabies countries. Confirm specific requirements based on your country of departure.
Certain South American countries may require an import permit. Begin the application process well in advance to avoid delays.
Most South American countries do not mandate quarantine for pets if all import requirements are met. However, exceptions may apply depending on the origin country.
An IATA-compliant travel crate is essential for your pet’s comfort and safety. Ensure the crate is appropriately sized to allow your pet to stand, turn around, and lie down comfortably.
When it comes to shipping a dog to South America from the USA, Airpets International ensures a seamless process. Their expertise in international pet shipping guarantees a stress-free experience for both you and your canine companion.
