In case nobody else has any ideas, try to contact the government there and get the contact details for the health officials. They will be able to tell you what you need to know.
Or, if they have one, contact the countries embassy in the country you live in.
They might be able to tell you the details too.

From what I know which is based upon other people's experience, not my own, all that you really need is a certificate of health from your vet along with a record of shots.

go to the web page of embassy of Belize and you'll find out that an import permit is necessary for bringing in pets.
Don't know how easy or difficult is to get one, since - after paying a fortune to fly four cats from PuertoRico, I decided to leave them with my daughter in the USA when I am in Belize.
