Import Pet To Malaysia (A Complete Guide in 5 easy steps for your Dog or Cat)

This video is all about the steps you need to take to get all the paperwork (documents) ready before you can take your pet to Malaysia.
We will also be showing you how the quarantine rooms look like and what you can expect from it. (Quarantine station Batu Muang)
Last month we crossed the border from Thailand to Malaysia with our furry friend @foxbodyzara.
What are the steps for the import?
1. Get all the vaccinations and export permit (see below)
2. Book a quarantine room and caretaker
3. Get the import permit
Step 1. What are the requirements that your dog/pet needs before you can request the import permit?
Make sure that the pet vaccinations are up to date.
-Rabies vaccine.
-DHP+L4 vaccine.
-Parvo virus/influenza.
-Microchip identification number.
-Vaccination records / Pet Passport.
-Health certificate.
Step 2. Quarantine booking and caretaker.
-Email the AQS that you want for your pet with the expected arrival date.
-Approval letter
We also needed an approval letter from the headquarters for our dog’s quarantine. This was because we wanted to transport her to another AQS instead of at the border itself.
-Caretaker.
Ask the AQS where your dog/pet will be spending the quarantine time, they will know a local caretaker.
-Maqis escort service
Contact the officers at the border that you are arriving at they can make sure that there is an escort available. If you are coming from Thailand that is Pedang Besar AQS.
Step 3. Import permit.
- Cief Pets.
We used the service of CIEF Pets, because they are one of the few companies that were offering the service of assisting with only the import permit.

Could you post the email of the AQ place? I would first fly to KUL and then take a second flight to Penang and would like to know if my dogs could quarantine in Penang or if they’d need to do it in KL considering that’d be their first flight into Malaysia.

Hii Wendy, Yes that is possible. We came in from pedang besar and got an private escort from there and then we put our dog in Penang for the quarantine because we were staying there as well. Also you need to mail the aqs for an approval to put your dog in quarantine in Penang!

You can find the phone number online (not sure if I can put in out here). But if you look for animal quarantine station Penang you can find a phone number and text them through WhatsApp!
