Tidbits! April 2019

April 5, 2019

It’s Spring Break! Leaving the country with your furry friends?  Do they need a passport?  KNOW BEFORE YOU GO!    

​All resident pets leaving the United States must send relevant paperwork required for the destination country to the State USDA office for endorsement prior to leaving the country. Additionally, transiting pets whose permits or health certificates have expired will be required to obtain these documents in the United States and have them endorsed prior to leaving the country.

Pets returning to the United States are subject to the same passport requirements as those entering for the first time. This means that pet owners returning to the United States should have a new health certificate completed by a vet in the country you are visiting if you stay for more than 30 days.

For Country Specific Requirements for Exporting Pets Please See the USDA APHIS Website for More Details

US-UK

The President and the UK Prime Minister announced a trade deal, providing American companies access to the UK markets.

The trade deal will expand US market access in the UK, creating a $5 billion opportunity for new exports for US farmers, ranchers, and producers.

Additionally, the deal will create preferential access to UK aerospace components, and 10% reciprocal tariff rate on the first 100,000 UK origin vehicles per year (with the rate increasing to 25% after that threshold).

The White House Fact Sheet also states that “The United States…will negotiate an alternative arrangement to the Section 232 tariffs on steel and aluminum.”

No dates have been provided on when these actions will take effect. Click below to check out the White House Fact Sheet:
