My family and I will be moving from the US to the Puerto Plata area in a few months, and we will be bringing our pets with us. I know that its not an issue to bring the dogs, however, I can't find a lot of information on getting our parrot into the country. Anyone have any ideas on what is required to get a parrot through customs? Thanks for any advice.

You need to contact the Ministry of Agriculture. Birds are a complicated matter. Some birds are not allowed in. Call Sanidad Animal at the Ministry during morning hours at Tel. 809 547-3888 Ext. 2367. You may ask for Dr. Bolivar Ruiz.
