Durban - Post Report Question and Answers
Are qualified veterinarians and/or good kennel services available? Do animals need to be quarantined upon entry to the country? Are there other considerations regarding pets that are particular to this country?
There is a very complicated and expensive procedure for getting pets into South Africa. The can arrive only as cargo, not as accompanied baggage or in the passenger compartment. You need to be well-informed and prepared a few months in advance to avoid possible disaster. Use a good South African pet-shipper to advise you and help handle the details. - Sep 2010
