Cat and Dog Relocation & Shipping to Dubai 

Pet-friendly Dubai 

Dubai, the largest and most populous city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), is renowned for its awe-inspiring skyline, vibrant culture, and luxurious lifestyle. Just like Hong Kong, Dubai is famous for being a lower tax region and boasting outrageously expensive real estate. 

With its stunning beaches and beautiful weather, Dubai has become a magnet for people seeking a perfect blend of modernity and natural beauty. At Ferndale Kennel, we have the privilege of helping numerous pet owners relocate their furry friends to Dubai each year, ensuring that their beloved companions are part of this exciting new adventure.

Pet Import Permit and Documentation for Pet Relocation to Dubai

To ensure a smooth and seamless pet travel experience to Dubai, we work closely with the Dubai Government department to arrange the essential import permit on your behalf. Our team of dedicated professionals understands the importance of compliance with international regulations and standards and keeps up to date with all of the pet import rules for Dubai.

Other than the import permit, here are the documents required to relocate a pet to Dubai.

Animal Passport: For dogs and cats entering Dubai, it’s essential to have their animal passport or vaccination card ready. This document should contain treatment validity, date of birth, microchip information, and vaccination records.
Health Certificate: A valid health certificate from the exporting country is required, confirming the pet’s health status and including their microchip identification.
Rabies Certificate: An original Rabies Serum Neutralization test certificate, conducted within 90 days before shipping, is necessary for some countries to enter Dubai (please check with us to see if you and your pet’s country is on the list). This certificate should indicate a minimum titer of 0.5IU/ml.

For Dogs: Rabies vaccine administered at least 21 days before arrival, along with vaccinations for Leptospirosis (Ictohaemorragea – Canicola), Canine Distemper Virus, Infectious Canine Hepatitis, and Canine Parvovirus.

Quarantine for Pet Relocation To Dubai

Dubai has no quarantine requirement for pets arriving with all their vaccinations and documents. However, your pet may be quarantined if your vaccinations and documents are not fully in order. Therefore, it’s crucial to ensure all paperwork and vaccinations are up to date and by Dubai’s regulations to avoid any inconvenience or potential quarantine for your pet.
