What this route typically costs
Critical points
The 90-day titre wait runs from the blood draw date, not the result date. Blood usually has to be shipped to a laboratory outside Uzbekistan.
There is no nonstop Tashkent-Paris cargo flight. Turkish Airlines via Istanbul is the standard routing, with multiple daily connections offering good schedule flexibility.
Uzbekistan's veterinary authority changed name and legal footing on 1 January 2023. Confirm you're dealing with the current vetgov.uz portal, not an outdated domain.
Approved carriers for this route
Not all airlines accept live animals. We book only with carriers that handle live animal cargo correctly.

Microchip before you vaccinate. The microchip must be in place before the rabies shot for the vaccination to count, and getting this order wrong is the most common and costly mistake.
Use an official, government-authorised vet for the health certificate, not just your usual clinic. Many destinations only accept certificates signed by an approved vet.
If this is your first international move, consider an IPATA-registered pet transport agent. They handle the documents, airline booking and crate sizing, and can troubleshoot problems.
