My fiancé and I are moving to Marrakech within the next few months and are planning to bring our small dog with us.

We're looking for any advice/challenges from anyone who has brought their dog from the United States. I've found some helpful info on the USDA APHIS website, though the timelines seem concerning with everything needing to be done within only a few days of "export."

I am especially worried that these timelines will throw us off because since we can't fly direct to Marrakech, we may take a day or two to relax with our dog in Paris or Barcelona before finishing the remainder of our journey.

Any insight would be extremely helpful!

I brought my fur babies (German Shepherds)with me and there are no additional requirements, I hired a clearing agent to EXPEDITE the process but in your case there will be no issues.

Have a safe journey

Thanks! Where can we find info on a clearing agent?

You will not require any clearance agent at all and in case of any issue someone at airport will offer the assistance but I am sure in your case it will be very simple
