I found here in Kolkata trying to find the guy who could write the NOC was a nightmare, when he was meant to be in the airport office he wasn't, when he was in the actual office he wasn't, it was like chasing your tail, and he wouldn't talk to anyone on the phone it had to be in person! So I found paying the handler was worth it as they sent people to both offices and chased the man down , expensive yes, value for money...no, but it sure did make it all easier and one less headache to worry about. Would I pay someone again to do it?? if I was out of the country yes, if I was here personally yeah I would chase the man down myself. Surprisingly too the Quarantine and Animal people seem to be not corrupt at all as you found out ! Chris Great info!

What I am a bit confused about is the timing on when to get these items. Some sites say that the health certificate needs to be valid within 10 days of travel, which means I have to get the certificate, get is USDA stamped and also get India NOC all within 10 days?? That sounds too much of a touch and go situation. I am in contact with a local Mumbai pet import agency (furryflyers.com) to help with NOC; but I do not know if all of the above can be completed in just 10 days. I saw your comments above on this thread and you do mention within 10 days.... Please advise, Thank you, Anuj Hi there Chris,

For the docs I know that my friends at Jetair here in Kolkata can get you the docs and put the arrangements in place. I am pretty sure its about the same price as the agents in Delhi, email them at info@jetex-oceanair.com . Mention that you got the info from Chris in Kolkata. If they cant help they will put you in touch with someone who can. The 10th day thing, just WITHIN the 10 days of travel get your vet to sign the certificates and then go to the USDA to get it stamped and registered. You cant get it done any sooner as the USDA will reject it. Good luck in Delhi... get ready for the smog, its bad at the moment I can only see about 100m outside this morning from my hotel room.

I have a flight from dfw to del in dec. also I am having trouble getting a clear answer on the health certificate can it be filled out by the vet and just has to get the stamp from usda within 10 days of flight or do I have to wait to have the vet fill it out on the 10th day before becuase my 10th day befor dept. is thanksgiving so I lose a lot of time if i have to get it done after. BTW your site has been very helpful thanks for all the info you posted. Do you have a recommendation on someone who can get the noc docs.

I hope you can find some decent flights into India with minimal stops....you should being in Shanghai, unless you are coming into somewhere like Kolkata.
