3) Such an application must be supplemented with a copy of a certificate from the last place of residence certifying that the pet has been vaccinated against diseases and doesn't have illnesses and infections.

4) Cats and dogs that are imported permanently not from the CARICOM area are subject to a 40% CET (Common External Tariff) and 5% CSC.
