Importation of cats and dogs from Middle East conflict-affected areas
If you and your pets are currently impacted by the Middle East conflict, please contact the department for advice on your specific situation, by phone on 1800 900 090 or via email at imports@aff.gov.au.
Cats and dogs which do not meet Australia’s import requirements pose a biosecurity risk to Australia and Australia’s import requirements for cats and dogs from Middle Eastern countries have not changed.
Cats and dogs must arrive in Australia with a valid biosecurity import permit and meet all import requirements.
