FAQs About Pet Transport to Hong Kong
What Do I Need To Send My Pet To Hong Kong?
You will need to provide an ORIGINAL copy of all vaccinations and blood test results as these will need to travel with your pet/s.
What Would My Pet’s Trip Be Like From Australia To Hong Kong?
In most cases, while preparing your pets for travel they will stay with us on site at our office where our trained staff will take great care of your pet/s and pre-flight preparations. A water dish will be available inside your pet’s crate and will be topped up during any transits.
Upon arrival, the airline’s freight handler will check their welfare and proceed to start the customs clearance with the consignee. Unless otherwise advised, the Customs Clearance is NOT included in our quote.
How Long Does The Pet Transportation Process To Hong Kong Take?
Although the flights to Hong Kong might only take a number of hours, planning for your pet’s trip can actually take several months to complete. This is because of the very strict pet importation restrictions and scheduling requirements Hong Kong has in place. To avoid disappointment, we recommend contacting us at least one month before you’d like your pet to fly out.
How Do I Send My Pet From Hong Kong To Australia?
We recommend that you discuss the process of coming back to Australia with one of our trained import consultants, who can outline an estimated price and all the requirements needed. You may also read more about Australian pet import requirements to understand the process.
