Sample for the test must be drawn 30 days after the rabies vaccination and the test results are valid for six months from the day of testing. Read more

Singapore is one of Asia’s most popular destinations for Australian expats, offering a high quality of life, excellent infrastructure, and strong animal welfare standards. While Singapore is a pet-friendly country, its strict import regulations mean pet transport to Singapore must be carefully planned and professionally managed. At Petraveller, we provide end-to-end Singapore pet transport services to ensure your pet relocates safely, comfortably, and fully compliant with local requirements.
Whether you’re moving for work, family, or a long-term relocation, our experienced team manages every detail of Singapore pet travel, from Australian export requirements through to customs clearance on arrival.
Singapore has one of the most structured pet import systems in the world, overseen by the Singapore Food Agency (SFA). Pets entering Singapore must meet strict criteria, including ISO-compliant microchipping, up-to-date vaccinations, import permits, and official veterinary health certification.
Depending on your pet’s country of origin, quarantine may apply. Australia is classified as a lower-risk country, but preparation timelines are still critical. Working with an experienced pet courier in Singapore ensures all documentation, approvals, and timelines are handled correctly to avoid delays or additional quarantine.
Choosing a specialist Singapore pet courier is essential, as most pets travel to Singapore as manifested air cargo rather than in-cabin. This process requires coordination with approved airlines, precise crate specifications, and strict compliance with arrival procedures.
Our pet transport Singapore service includes:
Every Singapore pet travel plan is customised based on your pet’s breed, size, and individual needs.
Singapore is a major international aviation hub, and many pets travelling to or through Asia transit via similar routes used for pet transport to Dubai. These shared routes allow us to optimise flight schedules, minimise transit time, and reduce stress for your pet.
For longer onward relocations, we also assist families continuing travel to Europe or the United Kingdom, applying the same careful planning and compliance standards across every destination.
Pet Traveller has extensive experience managing international relocations to highly regulated destinations like Singapore. Our team understands the complexity of permits, airline approvals, and quarantine protocols, allowing us to proactively manage potential issues before they arise.
We also support relocations between Singapore and destinations such as Ireland and other European countries, making us a trusted partner for both one-way and multi-leg international pet moves.
Every relocation is different, which is why our Singapore pet transport services are tailored to your schedule, destination, and your pet’s wellbeing. From your initial consultation through to arrival, we provide clear communication and expert guidance at every step.
We understand that work keeps you busy.
