🐾 Hawaii’s Animal Quarantine Program (AQS)

Hawaii is a rabies-free state, which means pets must meet certain requirements before entering the islands. Here’s a quick overview:

To qualify for Direct Airport Release (DAR) or the 5-Day-or-Less Program:

  • ✅ Pets must have 2 rabies vaccinations (given more than 30 days apart, and the second given at least 30 days before arrival).

  • ✅ A passing OIE-FAVN rabies antibody test must be done 120+ days before arrival.

  • ✅ Pets must have a microchip implanted before the FAVN test.

  • ✅ Submit all paperwork and fees 10 days before arrival in Hawaii.

📋 Missing any of these? Your pet may be subject to a 120-day quarantine upon arrival.
