Quarantine and Direct Release Services

Want to bring your pets with you to Maui???

Hawaii State law governs the importation of dogs, cats and other carnivores into Hawaii. This law states that dogs and cats meeting specific pre- and post-arrival requirements may qualify for 5-day-or-less quarantine program, which also has a provision for direct release at the airport after inspection.

Maui Humane Society is an approved veterinary service to inspect animals at the airport for direct release.

We have compiled a list of questions and answers that should help you with the process. Please read this document of FAQs as your first step in preparing to bring your animals to Maui. (Document is a .pdf file, requiring Adobe Acrobat.)

The link to the state website is: http://www.hawaii.gov/hdoa/ai/aqs/info

Once you have read the above, send an email to our veterinarian at quarantine@mauihumanesociety.org with the required information (see page 2 of the above pdf file) to initiate scheduling.
