Shipping Pets to Portugal

Portugal is a beautiful country nestled on the Atlantic and home to over 2000 years of history. It is a favorite relocation spot for many of our clients and we wanted to list a primer on how to get your companion animals there.

In order to enter, each pet will need:

1) Microchip.

2) All animals need to have Full Vaccinations.

Dogs: DHLPP and Rabies between 30 days and a year old. Cats: FVRCP, and Rabies between 30 days and a year old.

3) EU Health Certificate, Endorsed by the USDA – We have a fully editable copy which we will provide for you. We will also provide you with the address for the appropriate USDA office.

4) International Health Certificate - Most Vets carry the APHIS Form 7001. If not, we can instruct them on where to get it.

There are some additional requirements for custom's clearance, including a copy of your passport, however we will give you the particulars.

As Lisbon is a very pet friendly place, there is much you can do with your pet once you get there.

Porto Marina is located near the Vilamoura Marina, with its extensive selection of cafes, bars, restaurants and night life. Fully self-contained these cosy 1 bedroom apartments enjoy lovely views over the gardens and swimming pool. Pets are most welcome and they ask that you bring your pet a blanket so that he can enjoy the furniture.

Casa Wladival is in Dornes, a along the river Zezêre where you travel back to a time of myths, legends and mystery. You and your pets are welcome and you may walk together in the nearby woods or along the river as well as in town. Dogs do need to be on a leash while on the premises.
