The customs declaration guide provided by
the Port Authority of NY/NJ
states that dogs, cats, birds,
indeed all pets, need a special permit.
Suggestion: First contact the
US Dept of Agriculture attache
at
the American Embassy in the country of origin.
They have the instructions on how to get an
import permit.
After obtaining the permit,
upon landing at JFK (or other airport of entry)
your pet would go to the
"Animal Port"
holding area, specially created
for the purpose of temporary quarantine
and holding of live animals entering the US.
Before you book your flight,
be sure to stay up to date
on current import clearance procedures.
First read the official advice
given by US Customs via their website.
You can look up their section entitled:
Travelers Importing Pets and Wildlife
Even kitty can have a bad hair day.
If you plan to bring your pet into the U.K.
and want to learn more about the
pet-quarantine situation, check out the issue-oriented

SEFCO EXPORT Agent in Profile
JTB Cargo is a part of a very large corporate entity,
originally and best known as "Japan Travel Bureau".
Their core business has long been been providing travel agency related services.
That part of their business makes them perhaps the largest travel services company in the world, ahead of American Express.
Their cargo division is likewise impressive.
The full time - inside staff at the Cargo Corporate office in Shinagawa is comprised of well over 50 people.
In late September 2005 Sefco's J met with Mr. Hiroki Shigeta, Manager-JTB Cargo, at their corporate headquarters in Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo.
Guess what is one of their areas of specialization?
