Well, it might sound like a daunting task but it is actually a very simple process. The first thing you need to know is that all animals that are being imported into the country have to undergo a mandatory quarantine period that usually lasts thirty days. This is the basic quarantine requirement in Singapore for pet importation.

In order to keep the pet in quarantine, you should book the space two months before the expected arrival. The Sembawang Quarantine Station has the best facility. When you book this space, you will be notified of its availability a month before your pet arrives in Singapore. The only thing that remains is to make sure that the animal does arrive on that expected day. If it arrives more than 48 hours after the expected time, the spot in the quarantine will have been given away.

There are the veterinarian reports which you will need and especially so for dogs. The report must contain information concerning the pet’s immunization against rabies. There are usually two rabies shots that are given for dogs. You should also find an airline that will transport your pet to Singapore because you cannot drive to Singapore. Some airlines have a policy against pets. If you book yourself on this airline, you might have to leave your pet behind.
