Every dog entering the US needs a CDC Dog Import Form receipt.The rules

What does your dog need to enter the US?

Two or three questions, about a minute. You get your dog’s CDC pathway, the documents to prepare, where it can arrive and the dates to watch. Nothing is sent anywhere: your answers stay in this browser.

Question 1 of 2

Where has your dog been in the last 6 months?

Include the country you are flying from, and every country your dog stayed in, even for a weekend.

The CDC sorts dogs by where they have been, not by their nationality. A single stay in a high-risk country changes the rules for the whole trip.
