We are pleased to announce the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Veterinary Services (VS), National Center for Import and Export (NCIE), deployment of the ePermits system.
ePermits is a web-based system that allows users to submit import permit applications, track applications, apply for renewals and amendments, and receive a copy of the import permit – all while on-line. Users are required to sign up for an eAuthentication account to access ePermits.
For your convenience, VS will continue to offer both the ePermits system and the manual process to our users. However, we encourage you to take advantage of the ePermits option. This option will help to expedite the entire permitting process and enable users to track the status of their permits, confirm receipt, and easily renew existing permits.
