Domestic dogs must be free of evidence of diseases communicable to humans when examined at the port of entry. If the animal is not in apparent good health, further examination by a licensed veterinarian may be required at the owner’s expense.
Dogs must be vaccinated against rabies at least 30 days before entering the United States. This requirement does not apply, however, to puppies less than three months of age or to dogs originating or located for at least six months in areas designated by the U.S. Public Health Service as being rabies-free.
The following procedures pertain to dogs arriving from areas that are not free of rabies:
A valid rabies vaccination certificate should accompany the animal. This certificate should be in English or be accompanied by a translation. It should identify the animal, the dates of vaccination and expiration, and be signed by a licensed veterinarian. If no expiration date is specified, the certificate is acceptable if the date of vaccination is no more than 12 months before the date of arrival.
If a vaccination has not been performed, or if the certificate is not valid, the animal may be admitted if it is confined immediately upon arrival at a place of the owner’s choosing. The dog must be vaccinated within four days after arrival at the final destination, but no more than 10 days after arrival at the port of entry. The animal must remain in confinement for at least 30 days after being vaccinated.
If the vaccination was performed less than 30 days before arrival, the animal may be admitted but must be confined at a place of the owner’s choosing until at least 30 days have passed since the vaccination.
Young puppies must be confined at a place of the owner’s choosing until they are three months old, then they must be vaccinated. They must remain in confinement for 30 days.
Dogs that arrive in Hawaii or Guam, both of which are free of rabies, are subject to the state’s or territory’s quarantine requirements, in addition to whatever other Public Health Service requirements, above, apply.

careful, they might eat him.
Oh no. Don’t you know they eat dogs there!!!! You are going to a communist country that violates human and animal rights. Please find a good home for your pup BEFORE you leave. Also, why would you subject your pup to cargo on the plane! That’s torture alone.
Contact the Chinese Consulate for specifics. Different countries have different requirements, and quarantine periods.
Check with the Chinese consultate. You’ll need a health certificate, but be sure it’s only a few days from flying. Most countries require one 10 days or less from departure. Also check with the airlines you’ll be flying.
Please know that not all Chinese people eat dogs, for a lot of educated people, we dont eat dogs, I love my dog, and so do my parents.
China was originally very poor, so they had to make use of what they had.
Please know that China is a beautiful place, not everywhere, but we have beautiful cities, some are better than any in USA.
moreover, unless you are going to be a poor farmer there, you wont have to worry about them violating your rights. But no youtube for you.
Hi, Hanna is right as far as I know and at least for Shanghai (I have understood the rules are different for different parts of China).. I am bringing my dog to Shanghai in May and it has proved extremely difficult to get any advise even from the local Chinese Embassy or the Finnish Consulate in Shanghai.
I will get a rabies booster and a certificate for my dog more than 30 days before arrival. Then I will get a health certificate for him less than 14 days before arrival. Both from a government authorised vet and then (just in case) signed and stamped by the government veterinary dept.
Some sources told me that I should get the docs legalised by the Foreign Ministry and the Chinese Embassy but I will not do that. From the very confusing information available from different authorities and forums, this is what I think is needed.
The airlines are able to assist regarding the kennel, or IATA have some guidelines regarding that on the internet. From experience I know that there has to be enough space for the dog to move aroud, and you need two have two containers – one for water and one for food (as if a dog would actually eat or drink during a flight – mine hasn’t so far..)
Our flight is on the 7th of May, after which I can tell you how it went. Good luck, it is not easy!!
And for the other comments, I wouldn’t leave my dog outside of a shop in China, there really are some people stealing them for restaurants. The dog licence seems a must. Other than that, I think it is quite safe. I have seen several dogs outside of the walking hours, even in parks. Not sure if I will take the risk myself though..
