Which Canada rules depend on a pet coming from Romania?
Canada sets different rules for 3 groups of countries, and the official wording does not settle on its own which group covers Romania. Check the group table in our Canada guide before you plan.
These rules apply to pets from Romania, on top of the rules every pet follows:
- Rabies vaccination: An EU pet passport is accepted in place of the rabies vaccination certificate if it contains all the required details. Applies to dogs and cats with an EU pet passport.

The rules that apply to every pet entering Canada, whatever the origin, are listed with their official sources in our Canada guide.
What does Romania require before your pet leaves?
- Export health certificate: For travel to non-EU countries, ANSVSA publishes destination-specific model certificates for pets (for example dogs and cats to the United States, and dogs and cats to Brazil) under the heading on pet movements from Romania to third countries. The destination's own rules decide the certificate. Applies to dogs and cats leaving Romania for non-EU countries.
Import/Control la frontieră, checked 1 October 2026 - Export health certificate: Certification of live animals leaving for third countries is done by official veterinarians (MVO) designated for that purpose; ANSVSA publishes the list of designated MVOs. The page covers live animals generally, not pets specifically. Applies to live animals, including pets, leaving Romania for non-EU countries.
