Import Tips
• Obtain a USDA veterinary import permit and health certificate confirming disease-free status from country of origin
• Arrange for USDA-approved quarantine upon arrival, typically 30 days, to prevent diseases like BSE or foot-and-mouth
• Verify animal's weight under 90 kg at export and ensure proper identification with ear tags for traceability
