Default Re: Pet relocation to Australia

Hi,

Why some parts of the world like Australia and New Zealand are strict with pets entry?
This is to minimise the risk of exotic diseases being introduced into Australia.
Australia is free from many animal-related diseases found in other parts of the world. This is include Brunei, New Zealand, UK etc...
Europe has now started introducing Pet Travel Scheme or PETS - "... a system which allows animals to travel easily between member countries without undergoing quarantine. A Pet Passport is a document that officially records information related to a specific animal, as part of that procedure.
The effect is to drastically speed up and simplify travel with and transport of animals between member countries, compared to previous procedures, if the regulations are followed. Pets can only travel through Animal Reception Centres that are currently licenced with DEFRA." quoted from Wikipedia.

Termasuk negeri Sabah dan Sarawak pets kena kuarantin. They are known as 'Rabies-free zone'. Have pets that are not allowed or banned to enter -kindly ask the local Jabatan Haiwan for more info.

We just hope Malaysia become member of PETS, though .
