This is the Canadian dog pathway, assembled in the order you have to do it in.
Canada is the simplest of the three corridors on paperwork and the most demanding in the last two weeks, because of one requirement no other corridor has. A dog must either be vaccinated against H3N2 canine influenza, or instead meet three conditions stacked into the final fortnight: ten days’ isolation from other dogs, a negative PCR within seven days of export, and an examination within 48 hours.
Those windows land on top of the parasite treatments and the pre-export examination. Vaccinating early removes the whole cluster, which makes this the corridor where one conversation at the start saves the most trouble — and the guide says exactly when to have it.
It also covers the two things Canadians most often get wrong: using the certificate from the Australian import permit instead of HA3200, and arriving at the CFIA appointment without the originals of the rabies certificate and titre report.
What is inside
- The ordered sequence, start to finish, with what each step waits for.
- The dates that matter and how they are counted, including the ones the department states its own convention for.
- A paperwork map: every document, who issues it, who endorses it, what it attaches to, and which fields can never be amended.
- The hard stops — the mistakes that cost months rather than days.
- The source list behind every statement, with the date each page was read.
- Recheck instructions: what to confirm again before you book, and where.
What it is not
It is not personalised. It does not know your dates, your pet’s history or your itinerary, and it does not calculate your earliest travel date — that is the $19 USD automated route plan. Nobody reviews your case, and buying a guide creates no support relationship beyond the correction policy.
Every fact in it is free on this site. You are buying the ordering and the assembly, never access to the facts.
