Species notes

Dog

Check CDC dog import rules plus airline and state requirements. A veterinarian may need to prepare paperwork before travel.

Cat

Cats are usually less restricted than dogs, but airline rules and destination/state health requirements still apply.

Ferret

Ferrets are not treated like standard dog/cat cabin pets by many airlines. Confirm import and airline acceptance directly.

Rabbit

Rabbits may be accepted by some airlines but can have separate destination rules.

Household bird

Bird travel can trigger additional wildlife or agriculture rules. Do not assume standard pet policies apply.

Reptile

Reptiles are rarely standard cabin pets and may require destination and wildlife-rule checks.

Other pet

Non-standard pets require airline and destination authority confirmation before booking.

Confirm before booking

Destination rules depend on origin, age, vaccination status, species, route, and document timing. Check the official authority before buying transport.
