Hi everyone,

i have a tiny chihuahua and I’m confused by the process of certifying documents needed to get my dog a permit. On the website it says I need to have her health certificate certified by an office in Washington DC. However, when I called the Saudi Embassy here they said that is no longer needed as of Dec 2022 and I can certify the documents in my state (Nevada). So I’m looking into getting an apostille to certify the docs. I’m so nervous that if I don’t do the right thing my dog will be denied at customs.

Has anyone recently processed paperwork successfully for their dog this year? Please provide the order in which you did the necessary paperwork. I’m so overwhelmed.
