Palm Beach Equine Clinic is one of the largest provider of veterinary regulatory services in the United States, regularly exporting hundreds of horses annually to England, South America and Europe. Exporting competitive horses contains many variables, so we strongly recommend that you contact Palm Beach Equine Clinic for specific information regarding your horse.

Regarding importing horses, Palm Beach Equine Clinic supports the South Florida CEM Quarantine Center. Mares and stallions arriving from Europe will receive first-rate care as they go through the USDA procedures, taking cultures and blood tests to ensure the safety of the horse population from any possible diseases.
