About Pet Flight Guide
Pet Flight Guide points you to the official U.S. government rules for travelling with a pet. We are not an airline or a government agency; check your airline's own policy before you book.
Where the information comes from
Destination rules come from USDA APHIS and dog import rules from CDC; those agencies are the authority, and rules change.
Every destination page here summarises the corresponding USDA APHIS pet travel export page and links to it. The CDC rules and the CDC high-risk country list are taken from CDC's own pages. Where a source page does not give a figure, this site says it is not available rather than estimating it.
Source
The source for this site's data is the USDA APHIS pet travel pages, together with CDC's dog import pages. The operator retrieved the following pages on September 2026:

Dates
