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.
