Oh, and the wife will point blank refuse any deal unless we can take our cat. I'm fine with the taking it as far as DXB/AUH, (although grudge the £150 for the rabies/passport), and the €160 Euro from KLM...

Any ideas if there any complications in UAE on taking in an animal, or any particular documentation required?

I think there's a little info in the wiki, might be able to help you get a start on the process

Google Dubai Kennels and Cattery. They offer an import and clearance service in Dxb they shoudl be able to either help or at least point you in the direction of some-one who can.......

You can do it yourself but like a lot of things in the ME is can be pain but for a few quid you can make it some-one elses probelm to deal with......

thanks for the info, however going by the responses and my understanding on the other post cost of moving the cat is gonna be the least of my worries!

Doing it yourself can be simple (in AD at leats)

You can get the import certs online, but may need someone to sort out the e-dirhams card for you (200dhs per cat)

UAE is part of the pet passport scheme so is simplified. PM me if you have any questions regarding the process.

Blue Cat

do they need National ID cards as well

Hello.Kitty

yeah., they have to queue up like the rest of us - sorry, "like the rest of those who bothered".

If you haven't already contacted Dubai Kennels & Cattery I can highly recommend Alison at Dubai Doghouse. She specialises in pet relocation and can tell you everything you need to know, and probably more!

Is The Doghouse open again ? We used them for our cats and they did the paperwork wrong and Emirates wouldn't load them, cost us a fortune in extra kennelling fees and redoing of paperwork - nightmare.

Posh Paws did the dogs for us - they were brill and the dogs had a ball staying with them for three weeks. Not sure of the number but do a google and you should find them.
