Companion Pet: Melbourne to Abu Dhabi

Question
Hi,

I am hoping you can help me.  My husband may be reassigned to Abu Dhabi and we have a 11.5year old greyhound.  I was wondering what the quarantine laws are in Abu Dhabi.  able:  will I be able to collect my dog from the airport straight away or will she be in quarantine?  I realize that she will have to go as cargo on the plane and we are okay with that.  We have already spoken with a company in Australia that will take care of everything our end for us.  It is only the quarantine issue that is bothering us.


Thanks very much for your help (in advance)

Answer
There is NO quarantine in UAE   Visit: www.ipata.com   for firms in Abu Dhabi, Contact them for
current entry requirements.  You will need an import permit.  The firm you are working with in
AU should be able to do all this for you.  Afterall, I am sure you are paying them a good price.
