Pet travel route

Dog or cat from Ecuador to Indonesia: official requirements

Possible. With nothing done yet, start at least 3 days ahead. The main steps: rabies vaccination record, rabies antibody test result (protective level) and health check by a vet registered with Agrocalidad (valid 10 days) and 3 more.

Rules checked up to 12 October 2026From 4 official pages

In short

Limited official guidance. The authority for entering Indonesia publishes little for this route. Everything it does say is here, with its wording. This is the Indonesian Quarantine Agency's (Barantin) own short guide for pet dogs and cats coming from abroad, published in March 2026. It lists the documents and the online steps but gives no dates: no deadline for the prior notice, no age, no wait after the vaccination or the blood test, no minimum antibody level and no quarantine period. Confirm the details with the quarantine office (Karantina) at your port of entry before you travel. Bali has its own rules: pet dogs and cats can't be brought there.

What your pet needs

In the order you do them. Each step says whether Ecuador (leaving) or Indonesia (entering) asks for it.

Bringing a dog or cat into Indonesia: we summarised this from a short or older official page and it is still under review, so it may be incomplete.

  1. Get ready

    1. VaccinationEntering Indonesia

      Rabies vaccination record

      Bring your pet's vaccination book showing its rabies vaccination. Barantin doesn't say how long before travel it must be given.

      The official wording is ambiguous. Confirm this point with the authority.

      Details and the official words

      The guide asks only for the vaccination book; it gives no minimum age or waiting time.

      “Dilengkapi buku vaksin dan hasil uji titer protektif antibodi rabies”

    2. Blood testEntering Indonesia

      Rabies antibody test result (protective level)

      Bring the result of a rabies antibody (titer) test showing a protective level. Barantin doesn't give the level, the laboratory or how long before travel the blood must be taken; 0.5 IU/ml is the usual international standard, but confirm with the quarantine office.

      The official wording is ambiguous. Confirm this point with the authority.

      Details and the official words

      “Dilengkapi buku vaksin dan hasil uji titer protektif antibodi rabies”

  2. In the days before you travel

    1. Vet examLeaving Ecuador

      Health check by a vet registered with Agrocalidad (valid 10 days)

      A vet registered with Agrocalidad examines your pet and enters the health certification online in Agrocalidad's GUIA system, checking your destination's requirements. The health certification is valid for 10 days. The vet attaches the original vaccination card (vaccines and dates, microchip date, sterilisation if any, internal and external parasite treatments) and any extra document your destination asks for.

      Details and the official words

      “La certificación de salud animal tendrá una vigencia de 10 días, la información de la inspección clínica será ingresada en línea mediante el Sistema GUIA habilitado para cada médico veterinario registrado ante la Agencia, donde deberá cumplir las exigencias sanitarias establecidas por el país destino.”

      “El Médico Veterinario Registrado ante AGROCALIDAD deberá adjuntar los siguientes requisitos en el sistema GUIA y aquellos adicionales que establezca el país de destino en formato PDF.”

      “Carnet de vacunas original, debe incluir las fechas y vacunas aplicadas, fecha de aplicación del microchip y esterilización (si corresponde), así como, las fechas de las desparasitaciones internas y externas.”

    2. PaperworkEcuador and Indonesia

      Health certificate from your country's veterinary authority

      Your pet needs a health certificate issued by the competent official in the country it comes from. Barantin doesn't say how recent it must be; ask the quarantine office.

      The official wording is ambiguous. Confirm this point with the authority.

      Details and the official words

      Agrocalidad export health certificate: Once the request is approved, you collect the paper certificate at the Agrocalidad office or exit border post your vet chose. Its dates follow the destination's rules for the certificate.

      “Pengirim/ pemilik memastikan kelengkapan persyaratan karantina dari negara asal yaitu Sertifikat Kesehatan yang diterbitkan oleh Pejabat berwenang di negara asal”

      “Una vez aprobada su solicitud podrá retirar el Certificado Zoosanitario de Exportación, de forma física en la oficina de la Agencia o punto fronterizo de salida que seleccionó en la solicitud.”

    3. Official stampLeaving Ecuador

      Your vet requests Agrocalidad's export health certificate, at least 72 hours before the trip

      Your registered vet sends the request for the export health certificate in GUIA at least 72 hours before the trip and chooses the Agrocalidad office (or exit border post) where you collect the paper certificate, giving the request number. It costs USD 28.90 per animal, debited from the vet's GUIA account: settle it with your vet.

      Details and the official words

      “Para poder solicitar el Certificado Zoosanitario de Exportación de animales de compañía convencionales el Médico veterinario registrado, deberá enviar la solicitud 72 horas previas al viaje y seleccionar la oficina de AGROCALIDAD más cercana para retirar el documento en físico.”

      “Recordar que el valor del Certificado Zoosanitario de Exportación emitido por la Agencia es de $28,90 dólares por animal”

    4. NoticeEntering Indonesia

      Register with SSMQC and send Barantin's prior notice before you leave

      Register in Barantin's SSMQC system, then fill in and send the prior notice at notice.karantinaindonesia.go.id. The prior notice must be sent before your pet leaves its country of origin.

      Details and the official words
  3. Travel day and arrival

    1. On arrivalEntering Indonesia

      Report to quarantine on arrival

      At the airport, port or land border where you arrive, report your pet and hand it over with its documents to the quarantine officers. If it is healthy and free of quarantine diseases, a quarantine vet releases it with a release certificate (Sertifikat Pelepasan Karantina).

      Details and the official words

      “pengirim/ pemilik wajib melaporkan dan menyerahkan hewan berikut kelengkapan persyaratannya kepada petugas karantina untuk keperluan tindakan karantina”

      “akan dilakukan pembebasan oleh Dokter Hewan Karantina dengan menerbitkan Sertifikat Pelepasan Karantina.”

Good to know

  • Your pet can't come from a country that currently has a rabies outbreak. Barantin doesn't publish a list, so ask the quarantine office if rabies is present where your pet lives.
  • Guide, assistance and emotional support animals (at most 2) can travel as the owner's baggage under Barantin's 2024 baggage rules, with a letter from a mental health professional in the home country, at least 6 months of health history, rabies and distemper vaccination, a microchip or ID book, a pet passport and a rabies antibody test. Their owners fill in the All Indonesia arrival form.
  • Before you apply, check your destination's entry requirements and your airline's rules, and the rules of any country your pet transits. If your destination isn't covered by Agrocalidad's list, contact certificacion.zoosanitaria@agrocalidad.gob.ec (02 3828860, ext. 2012 or 2013).
  • Your pet doesn't need a clinical inspection at Agrocalidad before leaving (the registered vet records it online), but Agrocalidad carries out random inspections before boarding.
