Hi,
What will I need to do in order to bring my son's pet hamster into the United States (Minnesota, if it matters), from overseas in New Zealand? Can I just bring it on the plane with us?
Thanks,
Sharon
Hi Sharon,
While the pet import requirements for the United States are pretty straightforward themselves, this particular question will depend on the airline you use. It's best to check with the airlines you're considering regarding their most up-to-date policies for hamster travel, as different carriers have different procedures.
Thanks for the question, good luck, and please let us know if you need anything else!
