To travel from Saudi Arabia to the USA each cat must have:
· Microchip, implanted on or before date of validating vaccinations
· Valid core vaccinations
· Valid rabies vaccination
· Vet health certificate
· MEWA Export Health Certificate
· MEWA Export permit
Yes, cats can arrive as accompanied baggage (i.e. added to your own personal flight booking) to the USA, but you must check with your airline if they will accept your cat on your specific flight(s) and pay your airline directly for any additional fees.
IMPORTANT - IF YOU ARE TRANSITING VIA THE EU OR TURKIYE YOUR CAT MUST HAVE AN RNATT CERTIFICATE AT LEAST 3 MONTHS BEFORE TRAVEL
Unfortunately most of the regions’ airlines have suspended pet cargo bookings but we hope to resume bookings in April. If you would like a quote please send your pet details to pettravel@expatlogistics.com
