There should be ultimate care while transporting live animals. That’s why we at Seabreeze Logistics, recognized as the best logistics company in Dubai, have created tailored solutions to ensure the journey is compliant, safe, and comfortable for the animals. Let’s look at the things that should be taken into account.


●     Reservation and planning: while transporting live animals the shippers should make necessary planning and reservations. Ensure that sufficient space is available and confirmed for transportation. Plan the most direct route, coordinate any transfers, arrange for prompt pickup, and determine if an attendant is needed.


●      Documentation: Transporting animals needs more documentation than standard cargo. Understanding what these documents are and how to fill them out correctly will simplify the process of shipping live animals. These documents include the shipper’s certification for live animals, import/export documents, the Air Waybill, and CITES documents related to the shipment. We at Seabreeze Logistics do this paperwork more precise and easy way.


●     Container Requirement: It's very important to be aware of the container requirement. In case of a transshipment is needed the container must be received in advance and properly placed with any necessary equipment readily available. Ensure the container and its contents are weighed or measured and comply with regulations. Proper marking of the container with correct shipping names and addresses is a requirement, including full names, addresses, and telephone numbers of the shipper and the consignee. Attach a 24-hour emergency contact name and telephone number of a person who has full responsibility if other than the shipper or consignee. Duplication of the shipper's instructions about the care of the animal should be attached to the exterior of the container, and medication noted on the container. Ensure that proper ventilation requirements are met during shipment.


● Animal Behavior: Animals are not font of unfamiliar environments and unstable movements. By following specific guidelines, many of the fearful behaviors are diminished, making it a safer environment not only for the live animals but also for the personnel involved in their shipment. while shipping live animals, the following behaviors are necessary to be checked upon: digestive habits, elimination habits, sexual behavior, caregiving behavior for those that have young ones, care-seeking behavior, behavior under stress, shelter-seeking behavior, and investigatory behavior. If the goal is not to agitate the animal while in flight, careful management of the flying environment must be ensured. Also, males and females or natural enemies must be separated as much as possible if carrying them on the same flight cannot be avoided. In brief, air shipping of live animals involves a lot of planning and strict adherence to regulations that set safe conditions for them. Best practices in this area, coupled with tailored air freight solutions, will help more secure and efficient way to transport animals by prioritizing health and safety. Whether pets, livestock, or exotics, a detailed approach to air freight means successful, stress-free journeys for all concerned.
