Travel Tips
-
Dogs from the U.S. that are at least three months old need signed and dated certificates from a licensed veterinarian verifying that they have been vaccinated against rabies within the last three years. The certificate must clearly identify the animal. If your dogs or cats are less than three months old, you do not need a certificate of rabies vaccination - however, the animals must be in good health when they arrive. Assistance dogs that are certified as guide, hearing or other service dog are not subject to any restrictions for importation where the person importing the dog is the user of the dog and accompanies the dog to Canada. (Canada Border Services).
Collar tags are not sufficient proof of immunization. The certificate also is needed to bring a pet back into the United States; make sure the vaccination doesn’t expire while you’re in Canada
Pet dogs arriving from a country officially recognized free of rabies does not have to be vaccinated against rabies.
