[quote=”bogino”]How easy or complicated would it be to bring in a couple of pet parrots (an African Grey and a Double Yellow Headed Amazon) to Costa Rica? Conversely, if things didn’t work out and I wanted to move back to U.S. one day how easy/complicated to get them out? Thx.[/quote]
Yes, you can bring your birds in and yes you can take them back to the States. We have done it and had no problems. We brought our African Grey in in 2009. We checked into it thoroughly and you can exit with them as well. Leaving is actually easier than entering.
It IS expensive. With the required U.S. veterinarian quarantine of 35 days, Health Certificate, CITES permit, MINAET documentation, airfare, etc., it totaled around $1,800.
You can bring birds in that are not on the endangered spices list. African Greys CAN be brought in. You would need to check on the Amazon.
If you would like more information you can email me directly at: puravidafortwo@yahoo.com.
