advice on importing pets Vietnam
- Login to post comments
It is looking like we might be coming to live in Saigon for a period and one of our considerations is bringing our cats and dogs with us. Could someone let me know if this can be done safely if one lives in a villa with a garden. Are there areas suitable for pets? And, also, can anyone recommend any vets in Saigon or tell me where I can obtain a list?
Any other information regarding living with pets there will be very much appreciated.

Getting a pet in is no problem. There are some forms and probably a little extra money at customs, but I know at least one person who brought two cats without problem (except that they were sedated on the plane and appearantly came out a little bumped up).
Getting pets out of the country is very problematic and at least one pet owner had to pay a great deal to keep his dog in quaranteen in England for several months.
This vet has always been good to me. She speeks English well, is thorough and amazingly inexpensive.

Dear Anthony,
I am happy to help you. I am a vet from the UK. I studied in France then in England. I have just got back to Ho Chi Minh city Vietnam to work as a veterinary surgeon.
It would be very nice if I could help your pets in Vietnam.
