Introduction
Animal health and biosecurity are critical components of live animal transport. Global Livestock Logistics supports shipment planning and coordination in ways that reduce health and biosecurity risks and align with veterinary requirements in origin and destination markets.
Veterinary Requirements
Shipments may require veterinary inspections, health certificates, laboratory testing, vaccinations, and other documentation depending on species and destination requirements. Regulatory authorities determine final requirements and acceptance.
Quarantine and Holding
Many destinations require quarantine or controlled holding. Where needed, we assist with quarantine planning and coordination, subject to facility availability and authority approval.
Biosecurity Practices
We encourage strict biosecurity practices including clean handling environments, controlled access during preparation and loading, and adherence to veterinary guidance. Biosecurity requirements vary by country and may change based on disease surveillance and government policy.
Client Responsibilities
Clients are responsible for ensuring animals meet all health requirements before shipment, maintaining accurate health records, and disclosing relevant health conditions. Failure to meet requirements may result in shipment rejection or delays.
