No. There is no official government registry for service dogs or ESAs in the United States. Websites selling “official” registrations or certifications are misleading. What matters is: (1) a legitimate disability, (2) a letter from a licensed mental health professional for ESAs, or (3) task training for service dogs.No. No existe un registro gubernamental oficial para perros de servicio o ESAs en los Estados Unidos. Los sitios web que venden registros o certificaciones “oficiales” son engañosos.

You may qualify if you have a mental health condition such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, panic disorder, OCD, or other psychological disabilities that substantially limit one or more major life activities. A licensed mental health professional must evaluate your situation and determine if an ESA or PSD is clinically appropriate. Our free screening can help you find out.Puedes calificar si tienes una condición de salud mental como ansiedad, depresión, TEPT, trastorno de pánico, TOC u otras discapacidades psicológicas. Un profesional de salud mental licenciado debe evaluar tu situación.

Under the Fair Housing Act, landlords must provide reasonable accommodation for ESAs in most housing situations. They cannot charge pet fees or deposits for ESAs. However, they can deny if: (1) the property has 4 or fewer units and the owner lives there, (2) the animal poses a direct threat, or (3) the animal would cause undue financial burden. They can request documentation from a licensed provider.Bajo la Ley de Vivienda Justa, los arrendadores deben proporcionar acomodación razonable para ESAs. No pueden cobrar tarifas o depósitos de mascotas para ESAs.

For housing accommodations, you need a letter from a licensed mental health professional (LMHP) that states: (1) you have a disability, (2) you need an ESA for your disability, and (3) the ESA provides therapeutic benefit. The letter should be on the provider’s official letterhead with their license information.Para acomodaciones de vivienda, necesitas una carta de un profesional de salud mental licenciado que indique: (1) que tienes una discapacidad, (2) que necesitas un ESA para tu discapacidad, y (3) que el ESA proporciona beneficio terapéutico.

As of January 2021, ESAs no longer have automatic airline cabin access. The Department of Transportation changed the rules, and airlines are no longer required to accommodate ESAs in the cabin for free. Some airlines may allow ESAs to travel as pets (with a fee). However, Psychiatric Service Dogs (PSDs) still have full cabin access under DOT regulations.Desde enero de 2021, los ESAs ya no tienen acceso automático a la cabina del avión. El DOT cambió las reglas. Sin embargo, los Perros de Servicio Psiquiátrico (PSDs) todavía tienen acceso completo a la cabina.

To fly with a PSD, you’ll need to complete the airline’s service animal forms (usually submitted 48 hours before departure). The forms typically ask you to attest that: (1) the dog is trained to perform a task, (2) the dog is trained to behave in public, and (3) the dog is healthy. Airlines cannot charge fees for PSDs. We help prepare all required airline documentation.Para volar con un PSD, necesitarás completar los formularios de animales de servicio de la aerolínea (usualmente enviados 48 horas antes de la salida).
