Open WeChat and search for the "海关进出境人员指尖服务" mini-program.
Click the three dots in the top-right corner and enable the translation feature if needed.
Select the "Pet declaration" option.
Fill in the required information as prompted, then submit.
Note: Please make sure the information you provide matches your pet's actual details and the supporting documents you hold.
