France follows the standard EU pet import regulations, and Paris Charles de Gaulle is one of the most commonly used entry points for pets traveling from the US to Europe. Pets need an ISO microchip, valid rabies vaccination, and a rabies antibody titer test. The process is straightforward with proper planning of 2-4 months.
