he Texas Department of Agriculture has five livestock export facilities located across the state. Each facility provides livestock buyers and sellers with a location on the Texas border where animals can be held until inspection and export requirements are completed. Once the livestock have been cleared for travel, they can be loaded for transport out of the United States. Livestock leaving the Brownsville, Del Rio, El Paso, and Laredo facilities will be loaded for ground transport into Mexico. The Houston facility moves livestock by air and sea, covering destinations all over the world. CATTLE HORSES

Here at the Texas Department of Agriculture, one of our most important missions is to protect and promote production agriculture here in the Lone Star State. A cornerstone of that mission is to ensure that livestock being exported from our state meets all state and federal guidelines. The Texas Department of Agriculture export facilities are the gateways for exporting livestock from Texas. From cattle and horses to pigs and poultry, these facilities are tools to help get Texas livestock around the world. Through our export facilities, TDA is committed to not only protecting the transported livestock but also the owners, buyers and brokers. Exporting livestock may seem daunting. The information we’ve posted on our livestock export facility website, and our facility staff, can help you successfully navigate this process. Please contact us if you have any questions. Sincerely,
