Cat and Dog Relocation & Shipping to Malaysia

Malaysia Animal Permit Application

Pet Vaccinations and Health Certification

To relocate your pets to Malaysia, they must have an ISO microchip implanted, which is a 15-digit chip. Additionally, your pets must have up-to-date annual vaccinations and a rabies vaccination administered within the year and at least 30 days before travel.

The microchip will help to connect you with your pet, should you become separated on, or after the journey. They are a universal chip which means any vet will be able to use the contact details on the chip’s reference number to call you. The chip will also pull up vaccination records for your pet, so the vet can be confident of their vaccination status at any time, just by scanning them.

It’s also crucial to ensure that your pets are in good health before their journey. Our experienced team can guide you on the necessary vaccinations and help you obtain the required health certification.

If your pet doesn’t meet the necessary health standards, you may need to wait until their illnesses pass, or to get medication to minimise the issue prior to travel.

Liaising with Airlines and Crate Preparation

Selecting the right airline and arranging suitable transportation for your pets is an important aspect of pet relocation. It’s important to communicate with an airline that accepts pet shipments to Malaysia and meets your specific requirements.

Additionally, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) standard crate must be of the correct size and type approved by the airline and must be a comfortable fit for your pet. This means that it shouldn’t be too small that they can’t turn around, or too large that they can run around inside it. Our team can assist you in liaising with the airline and provide guidance on crate preparation and sizing, ensuring your pets’ comfort and safety during pet shipping.

Documents Endorsement and Acceptance

To ensure a smooth entry into Malaysia, it is vital to have all necessary documents endorsed and accepted by the local and Malaysian authorities. Our experts are well-versed in the documentation requirements and can guide you through the process, ensuring that all paperwork is completed accurately and in compliance with regulations.
