Import Tips
• Register with state vet for import permit; attach USDA VS 9-3 permit if from non-approved regions
• Label shipments clearly as 'live day-old chicks' with brooder requirements to expedite inspection
• Avoid delays by pre-notifying port of entry 72 hours prior; unprepared shipments face holding fees
