Import Tips

Secure an import permit from USDA APHIS prior to shipment and ensure CVI includes rabies vaccination if over 3 months old

Prepare for 30-60 day quarantine at an APHIS-approved facility to screen for diseases like glanders or CEM

Document end use clearly to prevent reclassification; working animals stay in 'other' while breeding stock moves to purebred headings
