Hi everybody,
I am moving from US to HongKong and planning to bring my chin(Goo-Goo) with me.
I have be checking what kind of documents I will need for that.
And I found on their government website says for importing chinchilla to HongKong, an official documents issued by the Government Authority to certify that the chinchillas are captive-bred is required.
Dose anyone know how and where I can get the document?
Is it something can be issued by my vet?
Thank you!!

I'd say call your vet and make sure you call an exotic vet and not a regular cat and dog vet and ask. And maybe a second clinic if they don't know.
Considering chinchillas are agricultural animals in the US maybe contact your state's agriculture department if that doesn't work.
Chinchilla breeders usually keep birth records but these are not official documents. Since they not considered exotic animals from a legal standpoint in the US there are no special record keeping requirements like there are with large parrots or exotic birds. If you bought yours from a pet store there will be no records at all.
