Goinghomesoon Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 In case anyone here is thinking of sending pets to Malaysia or beyond (it’s a popular staging point for import to Australia). Malaysia currently does not allow pet import from Thailand due to the Rabies outbreak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gandalf12 Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 If you go to a professional organization that specializes in shipping of animals overseas they will help. I once shipped my Alsatian from the UK to Zambia. Spratts (handling / shipping company) took care of everything. Wasnt cheap but well worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russell17au Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 The problem is that many countries are refusing to accept any animals for quarantine purposes from Thailand because of the rabies virus that is still current in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHTel Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Malaysia has it's own rabies problem so I imagine they're now doing 'damage limitation'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There must be some additional politics to the ban. We are shipping our cat direct from Myanmar to Malaysia (and onto Australia). Myanmar has many more rabies deaths per year than Thailand but no import issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
