Bringing a pet into the UAE

Pets entering the UAE need an import permit from the Ministry of Climate Change & Environment (MOCCAE), applied for online (around AED 200 per pet, valid 30 days). The pet must have an ISO 11784/11785 microchip implanted before the rabies vaccination, and the rabies shot must be given after microchipping and at least 21 days before entry. Pets from recognised rabies-controlled countries are exempt from the titer blood test; others may need it. Personal import is limited to two cats or two dogs per year, and certain breeds (Pit Bull types, Rottweilers, Dobermans, Tosa, Dogo Argentino, wolf hybrids and more) are banned. Pets arrive as manifest cargo at DXB, not in the cabin; a relocation agent or handler such as DKC clears them on the cargo side.
