Frequently asked questions

Does the microchip have to come before the rabies shot?

Yes. For Indonesia the rabies vaccination only counts if the ISO 11784/11785 microchip was implanted first. Always chip, then vaccinate.

Is there quarantine in Indonesia?

Yes — about 7 days on arrival (shorter if every requirement is met in advance).

Can my pet fly in the cabin?

No — this route requires cargo transport.

How long does preparation take?

Start about 1–2 months ahead.

Are any dog breeds restricted?

No specific breed bans are listed for Indonesia, but airlines may restrict snub-nosed breeds.
