When you check in they want to see that the Dog has Food and Water and is alive .....
When you fly back from Tampa to home you have to have the USDA HC Form 7001 ... you need to get that at leats 1 week PRIOR to flying back from a Vet there ..... USDA is located in Gainesville, FL. Phone Nr. is 352 - 333 - 3120 and you have to send them a 24 $ ..... we had a few Issues with that ... so get as much Info as possible .... there going to leave your Pet behind ... we where running out of time with the darn Stamp on the Paper ....
Way to many Problems ... and they sure like to take there time ... TRUST ME ... |
I just checked from the site of usda and it stats that
"Most countries including those of the European Union now have a veterinary certificate that is specific to their country.
If there is not healthy certificate for the country you are visiting then you should use the International Health Certificate USDA-APHIS 7001 form. It is officially known as "United States Interstate and International Certificate of Health Examination for Small Animals.
Some countries require that it be certified by the USDA - See USDA certification

My questions are did you have a european passport for your dog when visited Tampa last year? Did you have a health certificate from your veterinary stated that your dog was vaccinated against rabies and your dog is healthy?
I gathered some information from an office here in Belgium and the guy didn't mention about the HC form. I'm confused. Sorry for these so many questions.
Do I still need to have the USDA-APHIS 7001 form even if I have a european passport for my dog, a healthy certificate and a rabies vaccination certificate? Thank you in advance for reading this.
