ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi, I’m currently on a time crunch and I was wondering if anyone bringing pets in cabin with them was able to get an import permit on arrival? It says on the AQS site that you can and my pet meets all the requirements but I’m unsure if I should just rebook my flight or not. I have a valid usda cert and rabies vax as well.

The user is inquiring about the possibility of obtaining an import permit for their pet upon arrival in Thailand, as their pet meets the necessary requirements. They have a valid USDA certification and rabies vaccination. Community members suggest confirming necessary documents and seeking advice from pet groups.
