How do I travel to the USA with my dog (from Europe)?
Upvote:2
I did the following things to prepare for my transatlantic journey with my little dog:
- Went to the vet. My dog's rabies shot had recently expired, so she got a new one. This was noted in my dog's "European Pet Passport" that we had gotten on an earlier vet visit.
- I phoned Lufthansa to add an in-cabin pet to my reservation. (Later, at the airport I paid a 70 EUR fee for this.)
Upon arriving at San Francisco International Airport, there were no additional formalities. I went into the "I have stuff to declare" line at customs after the baggage claim and said I had a dog. The inspectors didn't take one look at my dog. They did ask whether I had any dog food and asked to look at it -- after a glance at the bag, they declared that OK too.
So: the whole process was totally easy and painless. It turns out that traveling between Europe and the U.S. with a small dog is not a very big deal.

You've found one link but basically you just didn't link others:
- APHIS from US Department of Agriculture
- State of California
- US Customs and Border Protection (Dogs)
- US CBP (Pets in General)
CDC also has information on what to expect when traveling with pets as well as some information on Foreign Born and a few other sites.
Long story short the procedure for bringing pets through customs is fairly simple you present your pet and all the documentation pertaining to its health to a US Customs officer and your pet may be examined and if nothing is found then you just continue on your way.
