Compliance with the Animal Welfare Act (AWA) in Animal Transportation: What You Need to Know

As a transport company, it is important to be aware of and comply with the regulations set forth by the Animal Welfare Act (AWA). The AWA is a federal law that sets standards for the humane treatment of animals during transport and is enforced by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS).

In order to stay compliant with the AWA as a transport company, it is important to be aware of the following requirements:

License Requirements: Transport companies engaged in commercial transportation, such as retail sale or exhibition, must be licensed by the USDA and undergo regular inspections to ensure compliance with the AWA. Class T transporters, who are typically limited to transporting animals for personal use, are exempt from licensing requirements but must still comply with the standards set forth by the AWA.

Transportation Standards: The AWA sets standards for the humane treatment of animals during transport, including requirements for food, water, ventilation, temperature, and rest. The specific standards vary based on the type of animal being transported, but all animals must be treated humanely and with proper care during transportation.

Record Keeping Requirements: Transport companies must maintain accurate records of the animals they transport, including their origin and destination, and must be able to provide these records upon request by the USDA. The records must include information about the origin and destination of the animals and any incidents of animal escape, injury, or death during transportation, which must be reported to the USDA within 24 hours.

Reporting Requirements: Transport companies must report any incidents of animal escape, injury, or death during transportation to the USDA within 24 hours.

Enforcement Actions: The USDA may take enforcement actions against transport companies that violate the regulations set forth by the AWA, including fines, suspension of licenses, and even criminal penalties.

In order to stay compliant with the AWA as a transport company, it is important to familiarize yourself with the regulations set forth by the AWA and to regularly review them to ensure that you are up-to-date on any changes. Additionally, it may be helpful to seek the advice of a legal professional who specializes in animal transportation to ensure that you are fully compliant with the regulations set forth by the AWA.

At Hauling Buddies, we are committed to helping transport companies stay compliant with the AWA. Our user-friendly tool allows transport companies to easily search for information on USDA-licensed animal welfare professionals and verify their compliance with the AWA. We also provide educational resources and support to help transport companies stay informed and up-to-date on the regulations set forth by the AWA.

In conclusion, the Animal Welfare Act (AWA) sets standards for the humane treatment of animals during transport and is enforced by the USDA. As a transport company, it is important to be aware of and comply with the regulations set forth by the AWA, including licensing requirements, transportation standards, record keeping requirements, reporting requirements, and enforcement actions. By familiarizing yourself with the regulations set forth by the AWA and seeking the advice of a legal professional, you can ensure that you are fully compliant with the AWA and providing the best possible care for the animals you transport.

The care and safety of the animals during transport

With your animal’s life at stake, you should not doubt that the animal transport company you hire will care for your animal properly and keep them safe for the duration of its trip. This can include proper restraint, meeting basic needs like food and water, and driving carefully to avoid discomfort and incidents. Not only are these desired for the safety, and comfort of your animal, but in some states, they are also required by law
