Hi all,

What are the formalities and paperwork required to bring your pet in Spain?

How long do formalities & paperwork usually take in Spain?

What are the relevant authorities to contact?

Which vaccines are compulsory? Do your pets have to go in quarantine at their arrival in Spain?

Which advice would you give to the ones who would like to move with a dog, a cat or any other pet?

Thanks in advance for participating :)

I can answer that if you come from europe, you need vaccinations ( rabies ) up to date and you pet needs to have an animal passeport.
He also need to have his microchip identification.
there is no quarintaine needed for an european pet, out of england I dont know but I dont think so.
at arrival you dont need to to anything, just find yourself a good vet, but that wont be hard to find, I recommend veterpet, they are really good.
