Pet travel route

Dog or cat from Taiwan to Egypt: official requirements

We can’t tell you yet. Egypt's veterinary authority doesn't publish its pet import requirements anywhere we could read. We only have what the UK and US governments certify for Egypt, so we can't tell you what applies from other countries. Ask the Egyptian embassy or consulate in your country and your own veterinary authority.

Reverse: Egypt → Taiwan

In short

Pets from Taiwan can still go elsewhere: the Taiwan exit page lists every destination and how long each takes.
The Egypt page shows which countries it accepts pets from.

Limited official guidance. The authority for leaving Taiwan publishes little for this route. Everything it does say is here, with its wording. APHIA's own pages (aphia.gov.tw) did not open from our network, so this is built from the law itself, in the Ministry of Agriculture's official English texts: the Act on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Animal Diseases (Art. 36), the regulations for animals carried by passengers and the quarantine fee regulations. They say when APHIA issues an export certificate and what you bring, but not where or how far ahead to apply, whether a vet's health certificate or other records are needed, or how long the inspection takes. Ask the APHIA branch at your airport of departure.

Limited official guidance. The authority for entering Egypt publishes little for this route. Everything it does say is here, with its wording. We couldn't find or reach a page for pet owners from Egypt's veterinary authority (the General Organization for Veterinary Services). These rules come from the Egyptian consulate in London and from the export certificates the UK and US governments issue for Egypt, so we only cover trips from the UK and the US. None of them gives a minimum age, a waiting time after the rabies vaccination, or the level and timing of the blood test the consulate asks UK travellers for. Confirm the requirements with the Egyptian embassy or consulate in your country before you travel.

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