Find out the standard process involved when bringing pets into Thailand, including any rules and regulations...
In Thailand, a pet
is classified as a domestic animal which means an animal
raised and fed with food and water by humans. Pet travel laws can be affected
by exceptional outbreaks of diseases. Recent examples are Avian Influenza (the
H5N1 strain of bird flu) and Foot and Mouth Disease.
The Department
of Livestock Development in Bangkok is the official contact for the
import and export of animals and the website should be checked for up-to-date
