Pet Transport from Vietnam to Israel
Which Israel rules depend on a pet coming from Vietnam?
Israel sorts countries into 2 groups, and Vietnam falls in “all other countries”.
Rabies vaccination at 3 months or older, 30 days to 1 year before arrival; rabies antibody titre of at least 0.5 IU/ml from a WOAH or EU approved laboratory; Israeli model health certificate issued within 10 days. Official source
The rules that apply to every pet entering Israel, whatever the origin, are listed with their official sources in our Israel guide.
What does Vietnam require before your pet leaves?
- Export health certificate: Before export, the owner sends a quarantine registration file (form 2a, plus the importing country's requirements and certificate template if any) to the Regional Sub-department of Livestock Production and Animal Health or an authorised provincial veterinary authority, which checks the file, examines the animal and issues the export quarantine certificate. Applies to dogs and cats leaving Vietnam.
