Available tools 8

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

customs

customs_check_rules

Per-destination pet border-entry requirements — NO account needed. What documents a dog needs to enter a country and re-enter the US. Use this to answer 'what does my pet need to travel to X?' for anyone. Omit `destination` to list every corridor.

customs_check_trip_readiness

Cleared / caution / blocked for pet + destination + return_date. NEVER assert clearance without this. (For rules without an account, use customs_check_rules.)

customs_list_documents

List documents for a pet.

customs_list_pets

List the household's pets (source of pet_id).

customs_overview

Counts of pets/documents by status, what's expiring soon, recent household activity, and MCP usage stats (per-tool call counts, public-tier reach, verdict distribution).

customs_prep

Validate the session, confirm the pet roster, report health. Call first.

customs_start_signup

Start a FREE customs.dog account for a NEW user by email and send them a magic sign-in link (no password). Use this to onboard someone who wants to store and track their pet's travel documents after you've shown them their border requirements.

customs_upcoming_trips

Upcoming trips from the household's connected travel calendar (TripIt/Flighty/Google/Apple), each with per-pet readiness (cleared/caution/blocked). Use to proactively flag paperwork needed before travel.

Customs Dog MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Customs Dog MCP do?

It exposes 8 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: customs_check_rules, customs_check_trip_readiness, customs_list_documents, customs_list_pets, customs_overview, customs_prep and 2 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Customs Dog MCP working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 1036 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Customs Dog MCP?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Customs Dog MCP need an API key?

No. Customs Dog MCP completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 8 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Customs Dog MCP?

It answers our handshake in 1036 ms on average, which is faster than 4% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
