Default Quarrantine changes for pets to OZ

Hi everyone,

Just a query.....my brother has informed me that the quarrantine rules have changed for people who are bringing pets from the UK to Australia. He was looking into it as he was thinking of travelling to UK from OZ. Apparently the rules changed in June and pets no longer need to be quarrantined as long as they have a vets certificate of health and all the vaccinations..... IS this true??? am going to do a search myself and check but just thought i'd ask here first....

Thanks all

Kate

Definitely not true. Pets need to be quarantined if they're coming from the UK.

Got all excited then! BUT I think they do have to have 30 days quarantine... must admit not looking forward to that bit much but at least it gives you time to get yourself sorted before bringing the pets home.

That is true Bridie. What animals are you bringing over? I am bringing my Dalmatian and my two cats. Really not looking forward to leaving any of my babies for the 30 days in quarrantine and am quite worried about how they will cope.
