Taking dogs to Malaysia

Question
My husband and I are thinking about moving to Malaysia to work and live for 3 years and we want to take our two dogs with us. We will be living in a house close to the International Airport with other expats and want to know what the Quarantine requirements are.

Answer
Hi June,

Thanks for your inquiry.  I'm guessing you're going to Kuala Lumpur?  Here is a link to the requirements for importing a pet into Malaysia:

As it mentions, there is a 7 day mandatory quarantine for pets being imported into Malaysia from the US.  You can also find all of the frequently asked questions about Malaysia quarantine on that page.

If you'd like to get a quote for our door to door services to Malaysia, feel free to email me directly (I will need to know your origin city as well as the approximate weights and breeds of your dogs):  rachel[at]petrelocation[dot]com.

Thank you!
