Antigua & Barbuda Pet Import/Export Requirements

Antigua & Barbuda pet import/export requirements are as follows:
To bring your dog and/or cat into Antigua, you must apply for a Veterinary Import License from the Veterinary & Livestock Division, Ministry of Agriculture, Government of Antigua & Barbuda. The Country of origin will determine the procedure that is taken. If the country of origin is a Rabies infected country such as the USA, Canada, Grenada and Trinidad & Tobago or a country that does not maintain strict entry control requirements of imported pets from rabies endemic countries, the requirements are: a Valid Certification of Rabies Vaccination (rabies vaccine within 1 year of importation); and Certification of Microchipping. Only pets with a duly issued import license will be accepted into Antigua and Barbuda.
Please note that your dog/cat is to be accompanied by an Official (Government Issued) Health Certificate stating that the animal is in good health and free from the symptoms of communicable diseases. The Certificate must be no more than seven (7) days old.
The animal is to be treated within seven (7) days of exportation for internal and external parasites with an approved product(s). The products should be noted on the official health certificate.
Dogs of the “pitbull” breed or mixes of this breed are not allowed to land on Antigua and Barbuda. Any dog, which physically resembles this breed, must be accompanied by certification from a recognized kennel club, which verifies that the dog is not of this breed (pitbull).
Airlines may have separate and additional requirements. Check with your airline to determine what requirements they may have, if any.
