European Union · Cost · difficulty moderate
The real bill for European Union isn't one number — it's a stack of provider fees. Here's every line.
Bringing a pet to European Union from the US is a stack of separate provider fees — microchip, rabies, a final vet exam, and the USDA endorsement — plus any European Union-specific permit or quarantine fee. You pay each provider directly; there's no single bundled price.

Every line you’ll actually pay
These are provider fees you pay directly — to clinics, labs, and APHIS. Ranges are typical US figures; your vet sets the exact price. Flights and crate are separate.
ISO microchip (if not already chipped)
$25–60
Rabies vaccine
Must come after the microchip.
$20–45
USDA-accredited vet final health exam
$60–150
USDA APHIS endorsement
Federal fee paid to APHIS; the amount depends on the certificate and lab tests. Check APHIS’s current cost-to-endorse table.
