International Pet Shipping to South Korea
Shipping Your Pet from the United States to South Korea
Transporting your pet from the United States to South Korea requires adherence to specific regulations to ensure a smooth and safe journey. At The Pet Porters, we specialize in guiding pet owners through the necessary steps to facilitate international travel for their furry companions. Here’s a comprehensive overview of what you need to prepare for your pet's relocation to South Korea.
Essential Requirements for Shipping Your Pet to South Korea
- Microchip Identification: All pets must have an ISO-compliant microchip implanted. While cats and dogs under 90 days old, or those originating from rabies-free countries, do not require a prior rabies vaccination, it is essential that they have a microchip for identification.
- Our Service: The Pet Porters will verify that your pet’s microchip meets international standards and assist with the registration process.
- Rabies Vaccination: A current rabies vaccination is mandatory for pets traveling to South Korea. However, pets under 90 days old are exempt from this requirement. The rabies vaccine must be administered before your pet’s arrival in Korea.
- Our Service:: We’ll ensure your pet’s rabies vaccination is up to date and provide assistance in obtaining the necessary vaccination documentation.
- FAVN Titer Test: The rabies-neutralizing antibody test, or FAVN titer test, is required for pets traveling to South Korea. This test must be conducted by an internationally approved laboratory or the competent authority of the exporting country within 24 months prior to departure. Additionally, the blood sample must be taken more than 30 days after the first rabies vaccination, and the results must indicate a level of greater than or equal to 0.5 IU/ml.
- Our Service: We will coordinate the necessary testing and ensure that all results are properly documented for compliance with South Korean regulations.
- Health Certificate: A health certificate is required for your pet, which must be signed by a USDA-accredited veterinarian and endorsed by the USDA within 10 days of your pet's departure. This certificate confirms that your pet is healthy and meets all entry requirements for South Korea.
- Our Service: The Pet Porters will assist in securing the health certificate, ensuring all documentation is in order for your pet’s travel.
