BrazilBrazil doesn’t require quarantine or a separate Import Permit for pets — just one CVI, signed by Vietnam’s Department of Animal Health.

Three things that make Brazil’s process different from a typical destination.
Pets with a complete, correctly-timed CVI clear entry without any mandatory holding period
Dogs and cats are the one live-animal category MAPA does not require a separate import permit for
There’s no direct flight from Vietnam — every pet connects through at least one hub before Brazil
Six requirements that decide whether a Brazil-bound flight can go ahead.
Daisy Pet requires an ISO 11784/11785 microchip on every shipment, even though Brazilian federal law only makes it mandatory for animals using Brazil’s own pet passport route — not the CVI route pets from Vietnam use.
Required more than 21 days before departure under Article 10 of Portaria 741/2024. Daisy Pet’s internal standard is a wider 30-day wait on every route — a safety margin, not a stricter Brazilian rule.
The Certificado Veterinário Internacional must be signed and stamped by an official veterinarian at Vietnam’s Department of Animal Health — a private clinic stamp alone is not accepted at the border.
Broad-spectrum internal and external treatment must happen within 15 days before the CVI is issued — not 15 days before the flight, a distinction many guides get wrong.
A registered veterinarian must confirm no signs of infectious or parasitic disease within 10 days before the CVI is issued — this window sits inside the parasite treatment window.
Once issued, the CVI stays valid for 60 days to enter Brazil, as long as the rabies vaccine recorded on it is still current on arrival day.
Brazil’s document list is short — the aviation logistics on this corridor rarely are.
Brazil’s two pre-export deadlines count backward from the day the CVI is issued — not from the flight date, the single most common planning mistake on this route.
Parasite treatment (15 days) and the clinical exam (10 days) are counted back from the day the CVI is issued.
Rabies Vaccine
Administer at least 21 days before departure — Brazil’s legal minimum. Daisy Pet’s internal standard is a 30-day wait on every route.
Microchip Implantation
Confirm an ISO 11784/11785 microchip is on record before any vaccine or exam — the number gets referenced on the CVI and checked in transit.
Confirm Routing and Booking
There’s no direct flight to Brazil, so confirm the transit hub, crate size limits, and connection times before locking in dates.
Parasite Treatment
Broad-spectrum internal and external treatment within 15 days before the CVI is issued — not 15 days before the flight.
Clinical Exam
A registered veterinarian confirms no signs of infectious or parasitic disease within 10 days before CVI issuance.
CVI Issued, Fly Within 60 Days
Vietnam’s Department of Animal Health issues the CVI on Brazil’s standard template — valid 60 days to fly, as long as the rabies vaccine is still current.
Pet owners work with a single point of contact while we coordinate every stage — from CVI documentation to routing across the transit hub.
Every shipment is priced by crate size, routing, and airline — we break down every line, no hidden fees.
