Hey,
Could anyone tell me more about the process to bring peta with me for a student exchange period. I will be moving to Canada from Finland and bring my pet rabbit with me.
Anyone have info/experience with similar situations? How long the quarantines might/will be? Etc.
Thanks in advance
1. Google is your friend!
B. My rabbit is coming to Canada from a country other than the United States of America.
Canada has permit and quarantine requirements for the importation of domestic rabbits from countries other than the United States. To obtain detailed information about this process, you should contact the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) office in the province into which the rabbits will be imported. You will be required to complete and submit an Application for Permit to Import to the CFIA along with an originally signed declaration of the following:
that the rabbits have been in your possession as personally-owned pets;
that
you will personally accompany the rabbits from the country of origin to Canada
You should apply for the import permit at least thirty days in advance of your proposed importation. CFIA staff will assist you with the process of arranging for the approval of Canadian quarantine premises. An import permit may be issued once the above information has been submitted and the quarantine premises has been approved.
Fees are applicable when applying for an import permit, approval of a quarantine facility, and inspection of animals. The CFIA will advise you on the fees applicable to your particular situation.
For clarification of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency import policies, please contact a local CFIA Office.
