Bringing a pet to the Philippines
The other direction: the BAI import clearance, the documents the origin country issues, the airport inspection and the 30-day home quarantine — with the same relocation plan.
We relocate to more than a hundred destinations, including routes with no public guide
Switzerland, Norway, Ireland, New Zealand, Guam, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia — each has its own paperwork. Tell us the route and we will confirm the current rule set, the waiting periods and the cost for your pet.
How the work is sequenced
Destination first, calendar second, flights last
We build the timeline backwards from the destination's waiting period, so the flight is booked when the pet is legally ready — not before.
