Traveling with pets

At the time of arriving at the airport, you must bring a certification issued by a veterinarian that includes the name, breed, specifications in order to confirm that the animal is up to date with the vaccinations and health condition. That certificate along with the pet must be presented at the corresponding counter of your flight to authenticate if the animal complies with the guidelines established by the airline. If so, the airline contacts SENASA to proceed with the validation seal. The passenger must pay the departure tax of the animal.
