APPROVED ANIMAL HOSPITAL (NOT REQUIRED FOR DIRECT AIRPORT RELEASE)

Owner(s) of pets that will be in quarantine more than a few days must register their pet at an approved veterinary hospital IN CASE
OF EMERGENCY when it is determined that your pet requires hospitalization. Owners must also provide the Animal Quarantine
Station with proof of registration. Hospitals will not accept or treat unregistered pets. Refer to the list of approved animal hospitals.

9. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT and AGREEMENT

I am the legal owner of the animal or animals represented on the Dog and Cat Import Form and associated documents
with this application. I intend to enter the above-described animal into the State of Hawaii in compliance with the
provisions of Hawaii Administrative Rules ³HAR´Chapter 4-29. I hereby agree to pay to the Department of Agriculture,
in full at the time the animal enters Hawaii, or enters quarantine in Hawaii, whichever happens first, the total amount of
fees prescribed by those Rules for the required program. A summary of the fees is as follows: $185 for direct airport
release; $244 for 5-day-or-less quarantine; $165 for Neighbor Island Inspection Permit; or $1,080 for 120-day
quarantine. The prescribed fee for animals transiting to other destinations is $30 registration fee; $15 health record fee;
plus $14.30 per day. In addition, a fee will be assessed for animals that remain in quarantine beyond the scheduled
release date, at the rate of $17.80 per day. Arriving before the eligible date qualified for direct airport release and 5-day-
or-less quarantine will result in charges of $14.30 each day before qualified plus additional program fees. Any refund of
fees will be in accordance with HAR § 4-29-17. Allow six to eight weeks after the animal¶s release from quarantine for
any refunds.

I further agree to pay, prior to release of the animal, for any additional owner-approved services, and for any services
deemed necessary by the station veterinarian to ensure the health and safety of the animal including diagnostics and
treatment by private veterinary hospitals. I will immediately notify the animal quarantine station in writing of any changes
in address or contact information during the time the animal is in the custody of the HDOA; and I acknowledge that any
animal remaining in quarantine ninety (90) days or more after the scheduled release date, for any reason, shall be
deemed abandoned and may be disposed of at the discretion of the animal quarantine manager, including placement
by adoption or euthanasia, without further notice and without liability on the part of the State or the Department of
Agriculture. I acknowledge that the fees and requirements above are a summary of the exact requirements that are
established by HAR Chapter 4-29, and that those rules and applicable law govern all aspects of the animal quarantine
program. Additional summary information and references are posted at hawaii.gov/hdoa/ai/aqs/info.

I declare under penalty of law that the foregoing is true and correct. By signing below, I acknowledge and agree to
the terms and conditions of this agreement.
