I know what we need to get where we're going. my question is if anyone has flown before with a dog... What does the china exit side need? I know that on this side when i fly out, the china airport people need certain certificates and stuff. What are those?

You need your dogs registration book. He must have all his shots and his chip.

The airport in Kunming is having a number you can call and ask for the details. I do not have the number, but call the airport, they can help you.
