How much does pet relocation cost in Dubai?

Pet relocation costs depend on whether the move is local or international. Local Dubai or inter-emirate transport starts from AED 1,500 including a temperature-controlled vehicle and door-to-door service. International pet shipping ranges from AED 4,000 to AED 8,000 covering UAEAQA permits, IATA crate supply, veterinary certificates, airline booking, and customs coordination. Exotic pets or multi-pet shipments start from AED 3,000 due to additional CITES permits and specialist crating. We provide a fixed quote after assessing your pet's specific requirements.

Is quarantine required when moving pets to or from Dubai?

The UAE does not require quarantine for dogs and cats arriving with valid vaccination records, a health certificate, and a UAEAQA import permit—provided the rabies vaccine was given at least 21 days prior to arrival. However, the destination country may impose quarantine : Australia and New Zealand require 10 days, Singapore requires 30 days, and the UK requires none if all documentation is correct. We advise on quarantine requirements for every destination and can arrange boarding near quarantine facilities if needed.

How do you keep pets safe and comfortable during transport?

Pet safety is our absolute priority. Local transport uses temperature-controlled vehicles maintained at 20–24 °C with secure crate mounting to prevent sliding. For air travel, we supply IATA-approved crates with absorbent bedding, attached water bowls, and familiar-scent blankets. We recommend a crate conditioning period of 1–2 weeks before travel so your pet feels secure. On the day, pets are exercised and given a light meal 4 hours before departure. We provide real-time updates at every stage—collection, airport check-in, flight departure, landing, customs clearance, and final delivery.

Expert Pet Relocation With Full Permit Handling

Moving with pets in or out of Dubai involves strict regulations, health documentation, and logistics that most families find overwhelming. The UAE Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (UAEAQA) requires import permits, microchipping, up-to-date vaccinations, and in some cases quarantine—and each airline has its own crate specifications and breed restrictions.

Our pet relocation team manages every step so you can focus on your own move. We handle UAEAQA import and export permits, coordinate veterinary health certificates, source airline-approved IATA crates sized to your pet, and arrange door-to-door transport with temperature-controlled vehicles. Whether you are relocating a Labrador across Dubai or shipping a Persian cat to London, our team has completed 500+ pet relocations with a perfect safety record. Pricing starts from AED 1,500 for local moves and from AED 4,000 for international shipments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about pet relocation services dubai

To relocate a pet from Dubai you need several documents. For export, the UAEAQA issues an export permit based on your pet's up-to-date vaccination record, microchip number, and a veterinary health certificate issued within 48 hours of travel. Dogs must have a valid rabies vaccination given at least 21 days before departure. The destination country may require additional items such as a rabies titre blood test (EU, UK, Australia), import permits, or parasite treatments. We prepare a country-specific checklist so nothing is missed and handle the UAEAQA application on your behalf.

Pet relocation costs depend on whether the move is local or international. Local Dubai or inter-emirate transport starts from AED 1,500 including a temperature-controlled vehicle and door-to-door service. International pet shipping ranges from AED 4,000 to AED 8,000 covering UAEAQA permits, IATA crate supply, veterinary certificates, airline booking, and customs coordination. Exotic pets or multi-pet shipments start from AED 3,000 due to additional CITES permits and specialist crating. We provide a fixed quote after assessing your pet's specific requirements.

Major airlines operating pet transport from Dubai include Emirates (cargo only), Etihad (cabin and cargo), flydubai, British Airways, Lufthansa, and KLM. Rules vary by airline: most allow cats and dogs in cargo with IATA-approved crates, some allow small pets in-cabin (under 8 kg with carrier), and snub-nosed breeds (Bulldogs, Pugs, Persian cats) are restricted by several airlines due to breathing risks. We match your pet to the best airline and route based on breed, size, and destination, and handle all airline-specific paperwork.

The UAE does not require quarantine for dogs and cats arriving with valid vaccination records, a health certificate, and a UAEAQA import permit—provided the rabies vaccine was given at least 21 days prior to arrival. However, the destination country may impose quarantine: Australia and New Zealand require 10 days, Singapore requires 30 days, and the UK requires none if all documentation is correct. We advise on quarantine requirements for every destination and can arrange boarding near quarantine facilities if needed.

Yes, we handle exotic pet relocations including birds, reptiles, fish, and small mammals. Exotic species typically require a CITES permit (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species) in addition to standard health documentation. Birds need avian influenza testing, reptiles require species identification certificates, and some countries ban certain species entirely. We research destination regulations, obtain all necessary permits, source species-appropriate travel containers with correct ventilation and temperature controls, and coordinate with specialist veterinarians for health clearances.

Pet safety is our absolute priority. Local transport uses temperature-controlled vehicles maintained at 20–24 °C with secure crate mounting to prevent sliding. For air travel, we supply IATA-approved crates with absorbent bedding, attached water bowls, and familiar-scent blankets. We recommend a crate conditioning period of 1–2 weeks before travel so your pet feels secure. On the day, pets are exercised and given a light meal 4 hours before departure. We provide real-time updates at every stage—collection, airport check-in, flight departure, landing, customs clearance, and final delivery.
