New World Screwworm: Inquiries on Travel of Animals
Date postedJune 9, 2026
News,
- All NWS related travel restrictions as relayed to USDA APHIS by US trading partners are being noted on the USDA APHIS webpages below.
- APHIS International Regulations (IRegs) for non-pet species: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/live-animal-export
- APHIS International Pet Travel website for pet species: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/pet-travel/us-to-another-country-export#modal-link-cdc-alert-export
- APHIS is still working with many trading partners, including Mexico, to clarify the restrictions/updated requirements. The USDA APHIS webpages will be updated just as soon as new information is received.
- They are asking that people not contact the USDA APHIS offices for additional information about country-specific restrictions, because USDA-APHIS doesn’t have additional information beyond what is posted to their webpages.
- USDA APHIS wants to emphasize that they are working quickly as possible with US trading partners and they appreciate patience and understanding as they work through complex issues.
