🚨🚨Ok y’all, the rules have changed again coming back into the US from Canada🚨🚨 see below for more details.

In Addition to CDC Dog Import Rules, MN Board of Animal Health & USDA Rules Also Apply

Recently, we shared information about the updated CDC dog import requirements that took effect August 1.

In addition to the CDC’s requirements, the Minnesota Board of Animal Health (the Board) and USDA also have requirements for bringing dogs and other animals into the United States.

We reached out to the Board for clarification specifically about dogs entering/reentering Minnesota from Canada and they shared this:

In accordance with USDA requirements, the Minnesota Board of Animal Health requires an International Certificate of Veterinary Inspection, also known as APHIS 7001, issued within 10 days of the exam, and a current rabies certificate. These documents are in addition to the CDC Dog Import Form.

International Certificates of Veterinary Inspection are valid for 30 days after the date they are issued. USDA-accredited Minnesota veterinarians can issue an APHIS 7001 for people traveling to Canada and returning to Minnesota within 30 days. People staying in Canada for more than 30 days will need a Canadian veterinarian to issue an International Certificate of Veterinary Inspection before returning to Minnesota.

Canada does not require a health certificate upon entry. Issuing veterinarians do not need to get the APHIS 7001 form endorsed by the USDA Export Office for travel to Canada.

These documents [International Certificate of Veterinary Inspection and current Rabies Certificate] must be submitted to the Board of Animal Health at least 7 days before travel. They can be sent to [email protected]

More information can be found on their website under "Dogs and Cats."
