How do I start the process of international pet shipping from Minnesota?

Pet parents should begin by contacting a certified international pet shipping service that’s familiar with USDA and IATA guidelines. The process typically includes getting your pet microchipped, vaccinated (especially for rabies), and obtaining a health certificate from a USDA-accredited veterinarian. From there, you’ll need to book an approved travel crate and arrange transport, often by air, to the destination country, ensuring that all import requirements of that country are met.

How much does international pet shipping cost from Minnesota?

Prices vary depending on your destination, the size and weight of your pet, airline cargo fees, crate size, and whether you're using a professional pet relocation service. For pet parents in Minnesota, international pet shipping can typically range from $1,000 to $5,000 USD or more. Additional costs may include veterinary services, paperwork preparation, customs clearance, and optional pet travel insurance.

Are there breed or size restrictions when shipping pets internationally?

Yes. Some airlines and destination countries have restrictions on certain breeds, especially snub-nosed (brachycephalic) dogs and cats due to respiratory concerns during air travel. Large-breed dogs may also face limitations due to crate size and cargo space. If you’re in Minnesota, check with both your airline and a pet shipping expert to ensure your pet meets all travel guidelines and is safe to fly.
