The Sembawang cat and dog quarantine station in Singapore

Singapore has proven to be one of the best places to live in. It has also turned out to become one of the leading world corporate destinations on the planet. People are flocking in their numbers to Singapore- which is quite a good thing. Moving to Singapore with your cat will require you to drop him/her off at the cat quarantine in Singapore for at least a month. The same is the case with dogs and other pets. The Sembawang station happens to be the official cat and dog quarantine in Singapore.

Moving to Singapore?

If you are moving to Singapore and you do not want to leave your pet behind then you must make sure that you book a vacancy for them at the Sembawang Quarantine Station. This is because as aforementioned, all pets must undergo a mandatory quarantine of not less than thirty days when imported into Singapore.



So you have several options, you can book for the a pet to travel along with you as you fly or alternatively it can travel ahead or after you. Most people opt to either let the pet travel before them and stay at the quarantine station before they arrive or to travel with them. If you travel with your pet, it can be cheaper because depending on the weight of the pet, you can take him/her into the plane as hand luggage.

You should call the station to confirm whether there is a vacancy for your pet available. The spaces are limited. Once space is available you will be notified- this is usually a month before the expected date of arrival of your pet. It is up to you to make sure that your pet arrives at the station on the expected day otherwise the vacancy will be given away. Of course you will also have to find an airline that is pet friendly to transport him or her.
