Late fees will also apply based on the terms and conditions set forth. Incidentals are always billed at the end of the quarantine process. Please be aware that your birds may require special treatment as advised by the USDA while they are in quarantine as part of federal regulatory procedures that are put in place for the safety and well being of your birds.

We are strictly prohibited from soliciting or rendering medical advice or care for your birds. This expertise must be done strictly through an accredited Avian Veterinarian. On rare occasions your birds may require an accredited Avian Veterinarian to visit the quarantine facility and administer additional care and treatment to your bird. We will always contact you to authorize said treatment before any additional costs are billed separately to you for those necessary treatments. ALL the birds you are having us import to the USA must be vaccinated for PMV and Salmonella at least 2x prior to the birds being delivered to ATF. All birds must be free of any external parasites including lice. Do not overlook these factors as unvaccinated birds and any birds that have external parasites or lice or carriers of salmonella have the potential to jeopardize both your birds as well as everyone else's birds and investments on a shipment.

This affects the entire shipment and birds cannot be released from import quarantine if there are any issues with the test results. We are also strictly prohibited from getting involved with any aspects of the buyer/seller transactions of bird acquisitions. Pedigrees for your birds should always be given to ATF or the designated couriers when birds are picked up by ATF or delivered to the ATF facility.

Welcome to our USA direct importing services page.

Our professional DONE-FOR-YOU services include direct importing to the USA from Europe, and also direct importing to the USA from Kuwait, as well as a few other select countries around the world. Your birds are always given the highest quality feeds, including Versele-Laga Black Label Feed, high end probiotics, seaweed grit, and other nutritional supplements, while going through the entire importation process with us.

We do not cut any corners on quality, as we want you to experience only the very best we have to offer for you and your birds.

Our organized, straight-forward importation process DOES NOT subject your birds to multi-country travels and stays, and extended longer than normal quarantines, which would subject your birds to unnecessary added stress and delays. That slow route requires birds to stay in Poland for two months, then they go to Canada for another three months, prior to finally arriving to the USA for final delivery. We regularly work with some of the most reputable auction houses, and breeders throughout all of europe, and have personally purchased our very own birds from these sources which operate only within the highest levels of integrity and service. We are very selective with all of the vendors we choose to work with throughout this process. They have been fully vetted, so you can have peace of mind knowing we only work with the very best, and do not settle for just anyone who works out in the pigeon business space.

By utilizing our services, you will experience the FASTEST SPEED OF DELIVERY possible by which your birds can lawfully be directly imported into the USA. The average time your birds spend in quarantine from the time they start their inspection in EUROPE to the time they are eligible for final delivery here in the USA is typically now 120 days, since new USA import regulations go into effect on July 15, 2024.

There are new USDA Federal Regulations that go into effect on July 15, 2024 regarding the importation of birds into the USA that originate from other countries around the world, like South Africa, Thailand, Europe, etc.

All exporters that are located outside the USA that plan on shipping birds to the USA are required to comply with these new federal regulations.

These new regulations will now require the veterianarian in the exporting country to supervise, and personally certify of the health status of the group of birds for the previous 90 days, prior to them being eligible for their export shipment to the USA. What this means is the days of simply being able to add birds to an export group collection, with only a few days head notice, are over.

Careful planning on your part with the seller you acquire and buy your birds from in Europe will need to be arranged a few months in advance, prior to the birds joining our established collection groups in The Netherlands.

Moving forward, we recommend that you have the (seller/breeder located in Europe) obtain a Tracer Health Certificate for all of the birds you plan on having us import. This will need to be issued by an accredited veterinarinan in their area, at least 60-70 days, prior to having the birds delivered to ATF in The Netherlands.

This is due to new relocation requirements which require "traceability" of potential viral diseases back to their point of origination, in the event that any birds in the group test postive for AI or PMV, at any time throughout the entire quarantine and importation process.

EXPERIENCE THE DIFFERENCE!

NOW THE IMPORTER YOU USE MATTERS!!
