A USDA (or CFIA) accredited veterinarian must then complete the Veterinary Health Certificate for St Lucia for endorsement by the USDA or CFIA if traveling from the United States or Canada. If you are not traveling from either of these countries, the Governing Authority of your country should endorse the forms. A copy of the Rabies Certificate should also be included.

A Blood Titer Test must be performed no less than 30 days after vaccination is given. Favorable results will be good for 6 months stay in St Lucia.

The cat/dog must be treated no more than 48 hours before entry into St Lucia with a preparation for the treatment of ticks and fleas.

The cat/dog must be transported by Air Freight directly into Saint Lucia and should not be in contact with an other cat/dog on the flight except for which a similar permission has been issued.

Failure to comply with these regulations will mean that your pet may be refused entry and the relevant authority in consultation with an authorized veterinarian can decide to return the pet home, or place the pet in quarantine at the expense of the owner or natural person responsible for pet, or as a last resort, without financial compensation, put the pet down where the return trip home or quarantine cannot be arranged.

All other pets (birds, invertebrates, tropical fish, reptiles, amphibia, mammals such as rodents and rabbits) are not subject to the regulations in respect of the anti-rabies vaccination but may have to meet other requirements as to a limit on the number of animals and a certificate to accompany them in respect of other diseases.
