Meet Buster, a delightful mixed breed dog who recently embarked on a significant journey from the New York, USA to Bengaluru, India. Buster’s travel, categorized as manifest cargo, involved a solo expedition, separated from his parent. His mom, an overseas citizen of India holding a USA passport, returned to Bengaluru after spending 15 years living and working in the United States due to a family crisis.

However, bringing a pet into India involves navigating stringent regulations, including the necessity of a Transfer of Residence (ToR) document. This document requires the pet owner to have resided abroad for more than two years and not visited India (Short Visit) for more than 180 days in the last two years.

Buster’s mom faced a challenge as she did not qualify for the Short Visit category due to her extended stay in India. Concerned about the possibility of leaving Buster behind, she sought assistance, and that’s when our dedicated team of pet relocation professionals intervened.

As experts in pet relocation services, we specialize in managing diverse pet travel requirements, encompassing customs clearance, Export & Import of Pets, health certificates, vaccinations, microchips, crates, and flights.

We proactively engaged with the customs department to present Buster’s unique situation, requesting special permission to import Buster to India as manifest cargo. Backed by comprehensive documentation and proofs, we navigated through extensive follow-ups and negotiations, ultimately securing approval from the customs office—a moment of immense joy for both us and his mom.

Buster arrived at Bengaluru airport, where we efficiently cleared him through customs and import formalities. The climax of this journey unfolded as we reunited Buster with his Mom at their home after an extended period of separation.

The heart-warming reunion between Buster and his mom epitomized the success of our efforts. Their happiness and gratitude fuelled our sense of pride and accomplishment. We take pride in facilitating Buster’s reunion into his new Indian home, extending our best wishes for their future endeavours.

At Anvis Pet Relocation, we are committed to making pet relocations seamless and joyous, ensuring every furry companion finds their way to their owner’s embrace, no matter the situation.
