FAQ
Common questions
Qantas lists flights between Denpasar (Bali) and both Melbourne and Sydney. Bali's provincial agriculture department lists Governor Regulation 88 of 2008 on the temporary closure of entry and exit of dogs, cats, monkeys and related animals, and its page does not say whether it has been lifted. Treat Bali as closed to incoming dogs and cats unless Barantin Bali confirms otherwise.
