Only for TA pet travellers - new US entry requirements

[IB2]

Just to alert any potential TA passengers with kennel bookings going westbound that, from 1 August 2024 onwards, new US entry requirements for pets entering the US come into force, which will require significant extra paperwork as well as completion of an online registration in the day or two before embarkation.  You will need to visit a UK or German vet to start the paperwork and also get endorsement from a government approved vet.  The details of the CDC announcement are linked below, and I know that the UK side is currently working through what it needs to do to comply.  Cunard is likely to be communicating to affected passengers once these derails become clearer.  https://www.cdc.gov/importation/bringing-an-animal-into-the-united-states/dogs.html
