Traveling with Pets to the U.S.

In order to take a pet to the United States you will need to obtain a rabies and health certificate from your veterinarian. You will then need to take this certificate to the Jefatura Nacional de Sanidad Animal at Servicio Nacional de Sanidad Agropecuaria e Inocuidad Alimentaria (SENASAG). SENASAG will issue a document called “Certificado Zoosanitario para Animales de Compañía”.  Present this document to Bolivian and U.S. Customs authorities.

If you wish to travel with any other pet than dogs or cats, you should consult U.S. Customs at http://www.customs.gov/
