What shall we do to take my pet cat abroad?

Immunity and Chip Implantation of Rabies Vaccine

Chip Implantation: Because the United States doesn't require imported pets to implant chips, your pets don't need to implant chips, but pets leaving Shanghai must implant chips before leaving the country because of the requirements of the Quarantine Bureau. The first thing that needs to be handled is the immunization of rabies vaccine. At present, China's requirements for pets to go abroad are that they must go to the local designated rabies vaccination hospital for approval, and they must get the animal immunization certificate issued by the hospital before they can go through the exit health inspection procedures. Chips are not popular in many cities at present, but they must be implanted in the European Union, so you can buy them from pet immigrants and then find your own veterinarian to implant them.

Collect serum from pets.

After rabies 1 month, you need to take your pet to the pet hospital to collect serum. It should be noted that serum is not blood, but is obtained by blood separation. Generally speaking, the laboratory needs 1-2ML serum for testing. However, for this 1-2ML serum, it is often necessary to extract 5- 10ML to separate it. It should be noted that it is incorrect to say that serum samples must be refrigerated. To be precise, blood must be kept in cold storage because its shelf life is short. If the serum is well separated, it can be stored at room temperature, as long as it is not too long. VET said that under normal circumstances, a week is no problem.

Health check-up before departure

Detection of rabies serum antibody (Favn &; RNATT): pets entering the United States do not need to be tested for serum. However, European Union countries, Japan, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Australia and New Zealand all have requirements for serum testing, and there are strict regulations on the time from serum testing to entry. After the pet serum test results are qualified, the pet can be taken out of the country after 3 months from the collection of serum. Therefore, we need to book flights for flying pets before this. According to the flight time, take the pets to the pet hospital designated by the local entry-exit quarantine bureau for exit health examination 1 week in advance. If you pass the physical examination, you can get a health certificate after 1-2 days.

Book a plane ticket and prepare an air box.

According to different cities, it is best to choose direct flights, so that pets do not suffer losses and are not prone to problems. Try to choose imported boxes with good quality, and be sure to be ventilated on all sides. There is a tray below, and pets can turn around freely in the box. The inferior air box may cause damage during the long-distance flight, and there will be accidents such as pets leaving the air box. The consequences of pets leaving the air box are very serious. Generally speaking, airport security personnel often choose to shoot pets after finding them, so as not to cause aviation disasters or terrorist attacks. Parents must pay attention to this problem.

Handle official health certificates and customs clearance forms.

An official health certificate is also called an animal health certificate. After your pet has passed the physical examination, you should go to the quarantine bureau to handle the relevant documents with the health certificate that has passed the physical examination. Get these two things and you can take your pet on the plane. But it will be more troublesome to do it yourself. You need to run around and go through a lot of formalities to get your papers. If you don't want to suffer, you can find a broker, and petimmigrant is one of them.
