Pet travel route

Dog or cat from Oman to Peru: official requirements

Possible. There is no official waiting period, but you still need: rabies vaccination (pets 3 months or older), valid core vaccinations on the certificate and internal and external parasite treatment before travel and 2 more.

Rules checked up to 13 October 2026From 4 official pages

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 Peru publishes little for this route. Everything it does say is here, with its wording. SENASA states these requirements in a press note (29 November 2024) and an older page (2020), not in a regulation we could read. They give no deadline for the certificate, no blood test, no quarantine rule and no list of accepted origin countries, and the fees quoted in them are old. Ask SENASA (viajacontumascota@senasa.gob.pe) what applies to your route. Customs (SUNAT) has its own rules for the pet's arrival.

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 (pets 3 months or older), valid core vaccinations on the certificate and internal and external parasite treatment before travel and 2 more. Book them early; lab and paperwork times are not counted.

On this route

  • Parasite treatment before travel

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

Oman → Peru

What your pet needs

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

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 Peru

      Rabies vaccination (pets 3 months or older)

      The rabies vaccine is compulsory for dogs and cats from 3 months of age, and the vaccination must be valid on the health certificate.

      Details and the official words

      “La vacuna de Rabia es obligatoria para ambas mascotas a partir de los 3 meses de edad”

    2. VaccinationEntering Peru

      Valid core vaccinations on the certificate

      The export certificate must list current vaccines: for dogs canine parvovirus, distemper, canine hepatitis, leptospirosis and rabies; for cats feline panleukopenia and rabies.

      Details and the official words

      “(en perros: Parvovirus canino, Distemper canino, Hepatitis canina, Leptospirosis y Rabia; y en gatos: Panleucopenia felina y Rabia).”

  2. In the days before you travel

    1. TreatmentEntering Peru

      Internal and external parasite treatment before travel

      Your pet is treated against internal and external parasites shortly before travel and the certificate says so. We plan for within 15 days (SENASA's 2024 note says 30 days, its 2020 page 15).

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

      Details and the official words

      SENASA's two pages give different windows (30 and 15 days): the stricter is shown. Ask SENASA.

      “además de la desparasitación interna y externa realizada dentro de los 30 días previos al viaje.”

      “Desparasitación (interna y externa) realizada dentro de los 15 días previos del viaje.”

    2. PaperworkOman and Peru

      Original export health certificate from the official authority of the country you come from

      Bring the original export health certificate issued by the official authority of the country of origin. It must give the pet's current vaccines, the parasite treatment and its state of health. SENASA's notes give no deadline for how recent it must be: ask SENASA.

      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.

      “Certificado sanitario de exportación original emitido por la Autoridad Oficial del país de procedencia que consigne la siguiente información”

      “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”

  3. Travel day and arrival

    1. On arrivalEntering Peru

      Present the documents to SENASA on arrival and pass the clinical inspection

      The owner or an agent takes an application with their details and the pet's, and the certificate, to the SENASA office at Jorge Chávez airport (or another international airport or land border post). A SENASA vet then examines the pet for signs of infectious or parasitic disease and decides whether it can continue with the entry procedure.

      Details and the official words

      “El propietario o apoderado de la mascota debe presentar en la oficina de SENASA, ubicada en el aeropuerto Jorge Chávez y otros terminales aéreos internacionales del interior del país, así como en puestos de control fronterizos (vía terrestre), los siguientes documentos:”

      “Posteriormente, se realiza la inspección clínica a la mascota para detectar la presencia de algún signo de enfermedad infectocontagiosa o parasitaria.”

Good to know

  • SENASA's 2024 note asks for the parasite treatment within 30 days before travel; its 2020 page says within 15 days. We plan for 15 days, which satisfies both: confirm with SENASA.
  • 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).

Money

What it costs

Government fees exactly as the official pages state them, and what vets and labs in Oman publish for the steps above. The two are never added together.

What vets and labs charge Not official figures

We have no published vet or lab prices for Oman yet.

Prices that businesses publish on their own pages, quoted as we read them; yours can differ. Ranges are the lowest to highest of these examples, never our estimate. How we collect prices
