China Pet Passport & Quarantine Information

WARNING: China has recently placed in effect a new rule that all pets must go into quarantine for seven days even if they meet all the requirements of entry. At the end of the seven day the remainder of the 30 day quarantine period can be home quarantine.

Bringing a pet into China is somewhat complicated even if you have the proper veterinary health certificate and immunization record for the pet. We recommend you utilize the services of a company that specializes in the entry process.

You may bring only ONE pet (cat or dog) per adult traveling into China. (two adults - 2 pets)

China does NOT currently require a microchip, however we expect this to change at some point in the future.

DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED:
1. International health certificate issued in the originating country showing the name, sex, and breed of the pet.

2. Vaccination record showing that a rabies shot was given within the preceding 12 months, but not less than 30 days before departure. Cats must be vaccinated against Enteritis (E3) within 12 months of arrival into China. You will need a certificate for Feline Panleucopania, and Feline Respiratory Disease Complex Vaccinations (vaccination certificate)

3. Owner's residential details in China

4. Copy of airway bill (if traveling as cargo)

5. Upon arrival you are required to register your pet with the police department in the city where you will reside.

QUARANTINE Your pet MAY be quarantined in the official quarantine station for a minimum of 7 days. If your pet shows no signs of disease it will be released to the owner but must be quarantined in the owners home for an additional 23 days. The quarantine fee is RMB 2,000 ($US250.00).

PORT OF ENTRY It is recommended that you enter China with your pets through Shanghai. Other provinces may have different regulations or requirements.

TRANSLATION OF DOCUMENTS Having the documents translated into Chinese will speed up the process at immigration. The translated documents should be certified (notarized).
