Taking a cat to USA

[louiseee17]

I know people have already asked similar questions, but I want to make sure I have up to date information. I've been trying to call Animal Quarantine Station at Suvarnabhumi (021340731) but they either don't answer or don't speak English. What are the necessary procedures for exporting a cat (traveling with me) from Thailand? I know I have to bring my cat to the quarantine station 3 days before departure to receive an export permit. Do I need any papers before I go? Will I receive the permit the same day? Can they do the health check there or is another separate vet check-up needed? She has received a rabies vaccination already (over 30 days before planned departure).

Thanks in advance!

-- Suggest you check with your airline, bet they've done such previously.
