Process of Horse Transportation

When horses are exported or imported, they are transported in containers known as horse stalls (air transport containers for horses). The most crucial aspect is to ensure that the horses do not get injured during transportation.
We, with our deep understanding of equine characteristics, take every precaution to transport them safely and maintain their health.
Please trust NOSAWA, a reliable choice for your peace of mind when it comes to horse transportation.

The NCA cargo dedicated aircraft arrives at the international airport, and the unloading of the air transport containers takes place.

After the NCA cargo dedicated aircraft arrives at the international airport, the equipment is unloaded from the aircraft. Equipment with front loading doors, especially when dealing with delicate animals like horses, can expedite the unloading process.
The unloaded horse stalls are then transported to a prepared work platform using small towing vehicles.

After undergoing import animal quarantine, the animals are then transported to their respective destinations.

Upon arrival from abroad to participate in international races in Japan, racehorses are transported in horse transport vehicles. After completing customs clearance procedures, they are transported to the quarantine facility designated for international racehorses in the bonded area.

During the specified period, the imported horses undergo animal quarantine, after which they proceed to their respective destinations, such as racecourses.
