Import regulations for dogs to India

Biggi · Feb 1st, 2005, 15:24

Hi all,

I might move to India soon and I have a medium-sized dog that I would bring along with me. I wrote to the embassies to see if the dog has to stay in quarantine, but I neither found safe information on websites nor got I some from the embassies (for months now there has been no reply).

Has anyone of you brought along his dog so far? What are the requirements?
What is it like having a dog in Bangalore (or Chennai, but less likely)? I know they are not allowed in the big parks in Bangalore, so how does it usually work with dogs there?

Thanks for any serious advice.

We would need a health certificate and a rabies certificate to bring a dog from Japan into India, with no quarantine period. There shouldn't be any differences between Japan and Singapore, I suppose. In addition, I've found a certificate form called ANIMAL HEALTH CERTIFICATE FOR IMPORT OF DOG INTO INDIA at the following site, which you can print out and have your dog's vet fill in.

Hello

Thanks so much for your quick advice! It really calms down my mind

, knowing that there won't be a quarantine of 3 months or so!

Have a very good day!
