Frequently Asked Questions About Import Pets to Singapore

Legal requirements vary based on your country of origin. Singapore classifies countries into three schedules:

  • Schedule I (Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, UK): Minimal requirements, no quarantine if compliant
  • Schedule II (USA, Canada, EU countries, Japan, etc.): Requires rabies vaccination, titer test, import permit. Pets are to travel within 5 days of owners to qualify for no quarantine.
  • Schedule III (All other countries): Mandatory quarantine period

All the relevant vaccines, blood tests and health certificates are required to be valid and compliant to ensure a smooth import and arrival to Singapore.

Not all pets need post-arrival quarantine in Singapore. Quarantine is required if the pet is imported using a personal licence and the owner has been in Singapore for over 5 days or if the pet has been with the owner for less than 6 months. Pets imported commercially require a 10-day quarantine at an Approved Quarantine Centre (AQC).

As per the Animal and Veterinary Service (AVS) of the National Parks Board (NParks), the quarantine period for pets imported to Singapore typically lasts 10 days. This applies to pets imported under a commercial licence or if specific conditions are met for personal imports. We manage all quarantine arrangements and ensure your pet’s compliance with regulations for a smooth process.

To import a pet to Singapore, you need an import licence, a veterinary health certificate, proof of rabies vaccination, and a serology test, as per regulations by the Animal and Veterinary Service (AVS) of the National Parks Board (NParks). Additionally, you may require a Customs In-Payment permit and quarantine reservation.
