What’s Involved in Moving a Pet to China

Moving a pet from Australia to China involves careful planning to ensure your pet complies with Chinese customs and airline regulations. Requirements include a valid microchip, rabies vaccination, completed veterinary documentation and airline-approved travel arrangements. We take care of every stage of the process so your pet meets all entry requirements before they travel.

China Pet Entry Requirements from Australia

There are several requirements that must be met before you can transport your pet to China from Australia. Here’s what they look like:

ISO-Compliant Microchip

All pets entering China must have an ISO-compliant microchip. This is then scanned by Chinese customs officials when your pet lands. We ensure your pet has a compliant microchip early in the transport planning process to help avoid delays or additional quarantine requirements.

Rabies Vaccination Requirements

All dogs and cats travelling from Australia to China must have two documented rabies vaccinations and pass a rabies antibody titer test. The first vaccination must be given at least 30 days before departure, while the second acts as a booster. Your pet must also have a valid rabies vaccination certificate. We advise on the vaccination schedule and ensure all vaccination records are correctly prepared before departure.

Health Certificate and Government Endorsement

All pets travelling to China require an official veterinary health certificate completed before departure and endorsed by the Australian Department of Agriculture. We coordinate the preparation, submission and endorsement of all required export documentation to ensure your pet’s entry into China goes smoothly.

Airline and IATA Crate Requirements

All pets travelling to China must fly in an IATA-approved crate. The crate must also comply with airline regulations. We coordinate the right crate for your pet’s size, maximising comfort and safety. We also ensure the crate complies with China’s customs requirements if relevant.

China Customs and Arrival Rules

Once your pet lands, Chinese customs officials complete documentation checks and an inspection. We plan your pet’s journey, including coordinating the arrival process, to ensure your pet’s arrival runs as smoothly as possible.

How Aero Pets Manages Your Pet’s Move to China

There are a few steps involved in moving your pet from Australia to China. Here’s how we manage your pet’s transport end-to-end.

Planning Your Pet’s France Travel Timeline

The planning process starts when you request a quote from us. Tell us about your pet, including their size and breed, when they need to travel, and where in China they’re going. From there, we build a timeline around your pet’s vaccination history, travel date and China import requirements. We map out the required sequencing for vaccinations, veterinary checks and documentation so every stage is completed in the right order and in the correct timeframe before your pet flies.

Vet Coordination and Export Documentation

We then work with our network of vets to coordinate your pet’s vaccinations, health checks and export documentation for China travel. We also manage the endorsement process with the Australian Department of Agriculture and check that all documentation is correctly prepared before your pet flies.

Flight Booking and Crate Coordination

Our team books a suitable flight for your pet from Australia to China, and coordinates the correct IATA-approved travel crate based on your pet’s size. We also ensure the crate complies with any airline requirements. In the background, we manage freight terminal check-in procedures and confirm all airline documentation requirements before the day of your pet’s travel.

Arrival Coordination in China

Our work doesn’t stop until you reunite with your furry friend. We coordinate your pet’s arrival in China, including communicating with receiving agents and providing guidance on how to navigate China’s customs and inspection procedures. We’ll also prepare you for what to expect when your pet lands, so you know exactly what’s happening when your pet gets off the plane.
