I've been reading that there are new requirements (paperwork) for dogs in Mexico, but I can't seem to find the information. Is this a Mexico
requirement or for coming back into the US? I've always taken a vet clearance and never been asked for it. I would rather be safe than sorry. Where do
I find the requirements? surabi - 9-2-2024 at 09:23 PM
As many have reported, it is not being enforced for Mexico since there is no rabies epidemic there.PaulW - 9-3-2024 at 06:23 AM
No enforcement so far. It is easy to have the filled out form just in case.tbnoble - 9-3-2024 at 08:12 AM
It is for entry into the US from Mexico with new CDC regulations and a form that needs to be filled out online. It is being enforced sporadically by
CBP. Quite extensive threads on it on FB if interested simply requires a chip, a rabies shot proof, older than 6 months and form filled out. I would
say no big deal our dog was already up to date. Timo1 - 9-3-2024 at 08:35 AM
Another non-issue. Americans won't enforce it eitherBoenBaja - 9-3-2024 at 09:23 AM
Just printed off the form and had our vet fill it out. They were all unaware of the new regs.mtgoat666 - 9-3-2024 at 09:40 AM
Complete the form online. A receipt will be emailed to you upon submission of the form. You can print the receipt or show it on your phone.
Instructions on how to fill out the form."
(links on the page)
Also, from the bottom of the page:
"In addition to having a receipt for a CDC Dog Import Form:
Dogs must appear healthy upon arrival.
Dogs must be at least 6 months old at time of entry or return to the U.S.
Dogs must have a microchip that can be detected with a universal scanner to identify them."
I bet the border guards will be lenient for a while.......maybe.

Thanks, I'll look into it. I'll check the FB page as well. advrider - 9-3-2024 at 04:30 PM
Just went to the CDC link and Mexico isn't even on the list of high risk countries. I guess that's government for you. SFandH - 9-3-2024 at 07:22 PM

That's because Mexico is not a high risk country.
That's good that mexico is not on the high rish country list!
Love those scientists that make lists, and check them twice!
CDC, one of my favorite agencies!
Any agency gives rise to celebrity scientist aint bad in my book. We need more celebrity scientists, fewer celebrity pols and soldiers!Salsa - 9-4-2024 at 01:59 PM
