Documents and preparation: France → Colombia
Preparation combines the departure country’s health documents with the ICA inspection request. On arrival, the documents and animal are checked before the CIS is issued.
Ask your vet and the DDPP/DDETSPP responsible for your address about the certificate, official endorsement and appointment. Spanish CEXGAN processing does not apply to a French departure.
- Prepare the inspection request and CIS payment through SISPAP; carry printed receipts. If travelling with a dog and a cat, submit separate applications by species.
- Original health certificate issued or endorsed by the official departure authority within ten days before entry, with identification and fitness to travel.
- Internal and external parasite treatment within the previous 60 days, recording product, active substance and date.
- Minimum age 15 weeks, current rabies vaccination and 21 days after primary vaccination. Check the ICA vaccine schedule for dogs or cats, including batch numbers and dates.
- Present the animal and documents at the arrival ICA office for inspection and CIS issue. Confirm the entry point, opening hours, breed restrictions and current payment conditions.

Dogs and cats: individual preparation
Species, breed, age, health, weight and carrier dimensions affect the options. PETC means travel in the cabin; AVIH means carriage in the conditioned hold on the accompanying traveller’s flight. We propose an option only when the operating airline accepts that animal and itinerary.
Entry checks and final city
Provide the airport, final city and every connection. Confirm inspection with ICA and allow time for onward travel. The map illustrates the route and does not confirm a direct flight or pet space.

Questions before you travel
Answers to common questions about documents, preparation and accompanied travel.
Which documents should I prepare?
Prepare the inspection request and CIS payment through SISPAP; carry printed receipts. If travelling with a dog and a cat, submit separate applications by species.
Which deadlines apply?
Original health certificate issued or endorsed by the official departure authority within ten days before entry, with identification and fitness to travel. Internal and external parasite treatment within the previous 60 days, recording product, active substance and date. Minimum age 15 weeks, current rabies vaccination and 21 days after primary vaccination. Check the ICA vaccine schedule for dogs or cats, including batch numbers and dates.
What should I prepare for the return to the EU?
For this non-exempt origin, check a result of at least 0.5 IU/ml from an EU-designated laboratory: sampling at least 30 days after primary vaccination and 90 days before certificate issue. Check the possible re-entry exception for a documented test before leaving the EU and continuous vaccination. Open the reverse route Colombia → France and review its conditions separately. Do not assume that the outbound permit or certificate covers the return.
Can my pet travel in the cabin or accompanied hold?
Confirm the animal’s place, PETC or accompanied AVIH option, aircraft, breed, weight and connections with every operating airline. The passenger booking does not confirm pet acceptance.
Does this page confirm the flight and pet acceptance?
