Checklist

Pre-travel checklist

Tap each item as you complete it. Keep this open on your phone at the airport and on arrival — your progress is saved on this device.

One item is newer than the rest.

Number 07, the CDC Certification of U.S.-Issued Rabies Vaccination, is a recent addition. Your vet fills it out and submits it to the USDA at the same appointment as your health certificate — before you leave the US.

Free printable checklist

Download the checklist, and hear about it when the rules change

A one-page PDF with all 13 items, what each one costs, and the phone numbers you will actually need. Print it, tick it off, take it to the airport. Yours straight away — no waiting on an inbox.

We'll also email you when the requirements change. They do change — the CDC rabies certification appeared with no announcement most owners ever saw, and we found out about it the hard way. If something moves before your trip, you hear it from us.

Your email unlocks the download. We'll also use it to tell you when the entry requirements change, plus the occasional Bay Islands pet-travel note. Unsubscribe any time. See our privacy policy.
