Pet travel route

Dog or cat from Oman to Indonesia: official requirements

Possible. There is no official waiting period, but you still need: rabies vaccination record, rabies antibody test result (protective level), health certificate from your country's veterinary authority and register with SSMQC and send Barantin's prior notice before you leave.

In short

Limited official guidance. The authority for leaving Oman publishes little for this route. Everything it does say is here, with its wording. Oman publishes no page on taking a pet abroad. The ministry's only export service is a general veterinary health certificate for an animal shipment, which you can start from a personal account. It doesn't mention pets, how long before departure to apply or how long the certificate is valid. Ask the Veterinary Quarantine Department of the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries Wealth and Water Resources before you plan the trip.

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.

At a glance

The rules on this route are the same for dogs and cats.

How early to start

No official wait

whether or not your pet is already microchipped and vaccinated

No official wait still means appointments: rabies vaccination record, rabies antibody test result (protective level), health certificate from your country's veterinary authority and register with SSMQC and send Barantin's prior notice before you leave. Book them early; lab and paperwork times are not counted.

On this route

  • Rabies blood test needed
  • Tell the authority in advance

Part of this route is still under review, so we don’t say what it doesn’t need.

What your pet needs

In the order you do them. Each step says whether Oman (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.

Taking a dog or cat out of Oman: 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. PaperworkOman 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

      Ministry veterinary health certificate for export: Apply to the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries Wealth and Water Resources for a veterinary health certificate to export your pet (the service is listed on Gov.om for personal accounts). Your pet must show no symptoms of epidemic, contagious or zoonotic animal diseases. The certificate costs 5 rials, and an inspection fee is paid at the port (from 100 baisa to 100 rials). Service time is given as one hour.

      The service is written for any animal shipment and lists documents that don't concern pets (fish quality, catch and CITES certificates). Ask the Veterinary Quarantine Department which documents it wants for a dog or cat.

      The customs portal also has a 'Medical Certificate to Export Animals and Wild Birds' service, but it asks for a company registration and an inspection request two days before the goods arrive at the port: it is written for businesses, so we don't apply it to pets.

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

      “This service enables you to get a veterinary health certificate to export an animal shipment.”

      “Fees to be paid to receive the certificate”

      “Fees to be paid for inspection at the port (starting from 100 baisa to 100 riyals)”

      “The shipment must be free of any symptoms of epidemic, contagious or common animal diseases”

    2. 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

      “Pengirim/ pemilik melakukan registrasi melalui SSMQC”

      “wajib dilakukan sebelum keberangkatan dari negara asal”

  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.
  • The ministry issues the certificate only once your documents meet the import health requirements of the country your pet is going to, so find out first what your destination asks for (vaccination, blood test, import permit).
