Taking a pet from the United States to Panama

What this destination requires

Dogs A health certificate is required to take your dog from the United States into Panama.

The health certificate must be signed by a USDA-accredited veterinarian and endorsed by APHIS.

After the pet's health certificate is issued by a USDA-accredited veterinarian and endorsed by APHIS, it will need to be stamped and signed by a Panamanian diplomatic office (consulate or embassy) in the United States prior to travel.

If you live in a State that does not have a Panamanian diplomatic office in it, the health certificate can be signed (apostilled/legalized) by the Office of Authentications, Bureau of Consular Affairs (U.S. Department of State) located in Washington, D.
