Moving to Bali for work and want to bring my dog

Posted by UnluckyJournalist390@reddit | expats | View on Reddit | 4 comments

Just as the title suggests, my partner has been offered a significant job in Bali that he has been chasing for a while.

Now that the offer is on the table and we are discussing options, I need some advice regarding bringing my dog.

I have lived in Bali previously but was solo and had no dependants.

This time around I’m a little older and wiser and the move would be for a much longer stint.

I am from Australia and we have pretty strict rules about bringing a dog into Australia. But I wonder, about taking a dog into Bali.

What do I need to know, is it easy? Is there anywhere immigration wise I might get caught up in legalities?

Thanks friends!!

I would check whether you will ever be able to bring him back should you decide to return to Australia. I know in the past there were countries where that wasn't possible.

Another one to look into OP ^^

I think there was a prev thread on this.

Yes, you can bring pets to Bali, but not directly (but you can fly it to jakarta or surabaya then bring it to bali) as they can't fly through Ngurah Rai International Airport because the island is classified as a rabies-restricted zone.

I am currently in the process of bringing my dog from the UK to thailand. All I know is that it costs me £4000 to get him here. But as for Bali I know the regulations are different and I think Bali is more stricter because of rabies.
