if your fligth at noon ( some vietnam flight maybe depart at 3.00 PM. )
you can made export licence early morning ( 8.30 am open) monday -friday and close for public holiday
after you finish for export licence , you can check in with dog and talk to airline to load you dog as excess baggage
( if you don’t have export licence and health certificate ,the airline not accept to load your dog )
best time to do 3 day before flight made export licence with health certificate day after that you will buy ticket

Hello Han
you should measure your dog first

place to buy
1.Jatujak weekend market
2.Manoon pet shop at Or TOr Kor market, beside Jatujak market ( or another branch)
3.Seacon Square
4.Kittisak pet mart (Muang Thong Thani)
price maybe 3000-5000 baht
Thanks for the help with finding a cage. I looked at seacon and they want 10,000 baht for an airline cage,way more than I want to spend. My search continues.
My dog is 2ft(top of his ears)tall and 26 long, I need a large kennel. Thanks Hans

I was thinking about getting a parrot. Ive always loved birds, but want to make sure I can ship one back to the US after my living here in Thailand. I know that birds often bond to their owners and that selling a bird after this point is quite tramatizing for the animal (and the owner!).

Im wondering what are the procedures to bring a pet from Thailand over to Malaysia.
Is it troublesome and tough? it is a newborn.
I understand the vaccine is only able to be taken when the pet is 3 months old, therefore I probably have to wait another 2 months +.

Hi… I am going home this august to the philippines and i want to bring my to 2 dogs with me. Can i put them together in one big kennel? This is their first time traveling and i think they might be scared so i’m thinking to put them together and have them check in as an extra baggage since the Philippines is just 4 hours away from thailand.
Also, can i go to suvarnabhumi quarantine office with out my dogs 3 days before i leave. I just dont know how i will bring my dogs and stay for another 3 days in bangkok. I am from chiangrai and it would be hard for me to bring them 3 days before my departure just to get a health certificate for them. Can i do this without them. What’s the easiest way of doing this???
Thank you so much!
Hi,
Would like to bring my 4 month old puppy from Thailand to Washington, DC. Since it’s so far, usually there is a stop in Japan. I’ve read that Japan requires 40 day advance notice? Is this correct?

Hi, you have a very informative site and I just hope you’re able to help me.
I’m a Singaporean living in Thailand for 2 years now and am planning to head back to Singapore. I do have a cat with me – 1.5y.o. Persian and was wondering if you’d advise me on the following:
1. Stated on the above that Health Certificate is only available at Suvarnabhumi Airport Animal Quarantine, would it be available at any vet instead of taking my cat to the airport for it?
2. Im looking at returning back to Singapore asap, approximately how long would all necessary procedures take before I can have a green light to go?
3. I live around Bangna and there are nearby Vet Clinics, one which I do frequent since its closet to my place – would it be advisable to bring my cat to the clinic or an animal hospital (probably Bangna)to have it checked?
4. Could you advise me on which airlines would be cheaper to take my pet with me and if it is possible to have as carry on luggage instead of cargo (because my cat is very timid and it is my first time flying with him)
5. Alternatively, would pet relocation services be cheaper or more expensive than relocating my cat by myself?
I’d very much appreciate if I would be able to get advice from you soonest. Thank you very much in advance.
Vee
Hi Vee
1.Health neccesary to import to singapore only from Suvarnabhumi airport AQS
2.Now Singapore change new rule to import, all dog and cat from Thailand must be test for rabies titer ( time to arrange at least 1 month prior to export) ,and you should be to arrange import permit from Sinagapore first
3.I’m veterinarian can service you for rabies test ,house call service in BKK ( my clinic located near airport )
4.Thai airways or Singapore Airline
5.Send as cargo is cheaper but very complicate with customs clearance
please call 0817511105 for more info
