Shipping Cats from U.S. to India

[Safuwa]

Does anyone know whether there are any special permissions available to import four cats (all spayed and neutered) from the U.S. to India under the new rules passed in April 2013? These would be shipped as unaccompanied baggage by a professional pet shipping company.

Does anyone know whether there will be any prohibition against shipping Persian cats to India? I have seen on the Jet Airways website that they will not ship this breed.

Re: Shipping Cats from U.S. to India

India publishes that they have just changed their regulations, and do not permit commercial imports of pets. However, there are those who say it can still be done. We are not familiar with this procedure and cannot endorse an agent, but I will share the contact info if you email me. (sue@pettravel.com)
