Move Your Pet to Bahamas, The
Moving your pet to Nassau, Freeport or beyond is full of airline rules, regulations and timelines. Let Air Animal Pet Movers® deal with the details transporting your pets into your island.
Five steps for entry into the Bahamas:
- Pet parents must personally apply for a pet import permit. We advise applying 30 days before arrival. Money orders or drafts can be sent via courier service. Personal checks are not accepted.
- Bahamas Dept of Agriculture Dog Permit Application
- Bahamas Dept of Agriculture Cat Permit Application
- The Bahamian government sends the import permit to the pet parent who applied along with Veterinarian Form (AGR/VS/1A).
- While waiting for the import permit:
- Locate the pet’s valid rabies vaccination certificate and bring it to the veterinary visit.
- The microchip number must be on the rabies vaccination certificate and confirmed by veterinary examination.
- Make an appointment with a licensed Veterinarian 24 hours before travel to certify your pet's health, microchip number and rabies vaccination. The veterinarian completes the form.
- Submit the cat or dog import permit along with the Veterinarian Form at the port of entry or departure.
After you move:
Please register with a local veterinarian to keep your pet's rabies vaccination up to date. Veterinarians typically send reminder notices when vaccinations are due.
Also consider having your U.S. veterinarian run a complete blood count, a differential and chem panel on your dog or cat before moving. Take the report with you to share with your new veterinarian. If another move is in your future, you and your pet will be ready.

It was SO COOL to be able to bring my dog to three different countries in Europe! I would have NEVER been able to figure out the paperwork without the help of Air Animal. You guys SAVED THE DAY! Thank you for giving me the coolest experience with Sir Meatball EVER!

Casey S.
I am not exaggerating when I say that I literally would not have been able to manage this part of the move without your help, patience and incredibly fast turnaround time! It is so appreciated and I will be sure to recommend Air Animal to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation.

Moved my dog from Texas to Hawaii. From beginning to the end, Cathy was extremely helpful and informative. Highly recommend using Air Animal to relocate pets overseas.
Kay S.
Jessica at Air Animal was extremely helpful and walked us through the entire process demonstrating care and compassion. We used Air Animal to take our dogs to the UK for a job assignment and based on the wonderful experience we had with them, they were the natural choice when it came time to come back to the US. They walked us through the process, were constantly in contact and always responding to our email silly questions. We HIGHLY recommend Air Animal to our friends and family.
