Pet travel route
Dog or cat from Thailand to Morocco: official requirements
Possible. With nothing done yet, start at least 4 weeks ahead for a dog. The main steps: microchip or tattoo before the rabies vaccination, rabies vaccination (inactivated vaccine) and rabies blood test, if your pet stays less than 12 months and 2 more.
Rules checked up to 13 October 2026From 11 official pages
In short
- Dogs and cats differ on this route: choose Dog or Cat to see just yours.
- Morocco puts Thailand in the group “Any other country”, which decides part of the rules.
- On this route: rabies blood test needed and official stamp on the certificate.
Limited official guidance. The authority for leaving Thailand publishes little for this route. Everything it does say is here, with its wording. This follows the Department of Livestock Development's citizen's manual for the export health certificate (it covers every kind of live animal, not only pets) and the 2020 ministerial regulation on taking animals out of Thailand. The regulation also requires permission from the Director-General to take an animal out, under a 2015 DLD notification we could not read, so we don't know that permit's lead time or fee. DLD's English pet-travel pages don't open from our network. Confirm the steps with the animal quarantine station at the airport you leave from.
Limited official guidance. The authority for entering Morocco publishes little for this route. Everything it does say is here, with its wording. Morocco's food safety office (ONSSA) publishes no guide for pet owners, only the model health certificates your country's vet must sign, as scanned documents. They set no minimum age and no fee. Every model also has the vet certify that your pet has lived in a country or area free of rabies for the last 6 months (the US model says premises), which ONSSA doesn't explain, and the rabies blood test is only for pets staying less than 12 months. Ask ONSSA, or the official vet service in your country, before you travel.

Residence ruleEntering Morocco
6 months in a rabies-free country or area (ask ONSSA)
The official vet certifies that your pet has lived in a country or area free of rabies since birth or for at least the 6 months before it leaves. ONSSA doesn't say how this applies to a pet from a country where rabies is present: ask your official vet service or ONSSA before you plan the trip.
The official wording is ambiguous. Confirm this point with the authority.
Details and the official words
Every ONSSA model has this statement. The certificates don't define a rabies-free country or area, and ONSSA publishes no list.
“Ont été entretenus dans un pays ou dans une zone indemne de rage depuis leur naissance ou depuis au moins les 6 mois ayant précédé leur chargement”
“Ont été entretenus dans un pays ou dans une zone indemne de rage depuis leur naissance ou depuis au moins les 6 mois ayant précédé leur chargement.”
“Ont été entretenus dans un lieu indemne de rage depuis leur naissance ou depuis au moins les 6 mois ayant précédé leur chargement.”
“Have been maintained in a rabies free country or free zone since their birth or at least during the last six months prior to their loading”
IdentificationThailand and Morocco
Microchip or tattoo before the rabies vaccination
Your pet must carry a permanent identification (a microchip or a tattoo) put in before its rabies vaccination.
Details and the official words
Microchip (or tattoo) matching the documents: DLD asks for dogs and cats to be tattooed or microchipped, at your expense, and the identification must match the application, the health certificate and the other documents. For a pet the document list asks for a microchip certificate issued by an animal hospital or clinic.
“Marque d’identification (tatouage ou puce)”
“Ont été identifiés à l’aide d’une marque permanente, préalablement à leur vaccination contre la rage”
“Ont été identifiés à l’aide d’une marque permanente, préalablement à leur vaccination contre la rage.”

VaccinationEntering Morocco
Rabies vaccination (inactivated vaccine)
Your pet must be correctly vaccinated against rabies with an inactivated vaccine, after the microchip. At least 21 days must have passed since the first (primary) vaccination when the certificate is signed. The certificate lists the vaccine, its maker, the batch and the dates of the first vaccination and the last booster.
Details and the official words
No minimum age for the vaccination is given.
“Ont été correctement vaccinés contre la rage par un vaccin inactivé, et que 21 jours au moins se sont écoulés après la primovaccination antirabique”
“Ont été correctement vaccinés contre la rage par un vaccin inactivé”

“Ont été correctement vaccinés contre la rage par un vaccin inactivé, et que 21 jours au moins se sont écoulés après la vaccination antirabique”
Blood testEntering Morocco
Rabies blood test, if your pet stays less than 12 months
For a stay of less than 12 months, a vet authorised by your country's authority takes a blood sample at least 30 days after the last rabies vaccination, and the result must be at least 0.5 IU/ml. The lab report, stamped by your country's veterinary authority, is attached to the certificate, and the vaccinations must then be kept up to date. A pet moving to Morocco for 12 months or more doesn't need it: its certificate says so instead.
The official wording is ambiguous. Confirm this point with the authority.
Details and the official words
We can't tell from your trip how long your pet will stay, so the plan keeps the test. Skip it if your pet is moving to Morocco for 12 months or more.
The US model has no blood test.
“Seront exportés pour une période supérieure à 12 mois”
“Seront exportés temporairement au Maroc pour une période inférieure à 12 mois, et ont été soumis à un prélèvement de sang, effectué par un vétérinaire habilité par l'autorité compétente, pour la recherche des anticorps sériques neutralisant le virus rabique, au moins 30 jours après la vaccination précédente contre la rage avec un titre supérieur ou égal à 0,5 UI/ml”

“Will be exported temporarily for a period less than 12 months, and have been submitted to a blood sample, taken by the competent authority, for an antibody titration test at least 30 days after the previous rabies vaccination, with a positive result, of at least 0.5 IU/ml”

Health certificate for Morocco, signed after a vet check within 24 hours of departure

Details and the official words
DLD health certificate at the animal quarantine station of your departure port: Before your pet leaves, take it to the animal quarantine station at the port you leave from (or another place DLD approves or the station's vet chooses). The vet there examines it and, as your destination requires, may hold it for observation, take samples for the lab, vaccinate or treat it, or mark it; then DLD signs the health certificate. There is no fee. Stations are open Monday to Friday, 08:30 to 16:30, except public holidays.

Apply to DLD in the e-Movement system
Apply for the health certificate online in DLD's e-Movement system (https://newemove.dld.go.th/req/), attaching the documents there or emailing them to the animal quarantine station at the port you will leave from, and make an appointment with that station. The documents include your ID card or, for a foreigner, your passport; the vaccination certificate showing your pet's microchip number; the microchip certificate; the airway bill; and what your destination asks for. DLD's processing time is 3 working days once the documents are complete.
The official wording is ambiguous. Confirm this point with the authority.
Details and the official words
DLD's page on its import and export procedure says the application form R.1/1 (for taking animals into, out of or through Thailand) is filed in e-Movement at least 7 working days ahead, but it describes that step for imports. We don't know whether the same lead time applies when you leave: ask the quarantine station.
An application filed in e-Movement outside office hours is handled on the next working day. If documents are missing, you have 7 working days to correct them, or the application is cancelled.

Travel day and arrival
On arrivalEntering Morocco
ONSSA check at the border inspection post
On arrival, ONSSA's vets at the border inspection post (Morocco has 16) check the certificate, your pet's identity and its health. Only pets that meet the requirements are let in.
Details and the official words
“Au Maroc 16 PIF sont ouverts par voie réglementaire à l’import/export des animaux et le contrôle sanitaire est effectué par des vétérinaires de l’Office National de Sécurité Sanitaire des Produits Alimentaires (ONSSA).”
“Après un contrôle documentaire, d’identité et physique, seuls les animaux qui sont conformes sur le plan sanitaire sont autorisés à être admis sur le territoire national.”
Good to know
- Morocco bans importing dogs classed as dangerous: pit bull types (Staffordshire Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Bull Terrier), boerboel types (Mastiff) and Tosa.
- At the border inspection post, ONSSA's vets check the documents, your pet's identity and its health. A pet that doesn't meet the requirements is sent back or destroyed.
- DLD issues the certificate following your destination's conditions, so bring what your destination asks for: its import permit (if it issues one), its own certificate forms (for example an EU annex or a veterinary certificate) and the lab reports its conditions require.

Round trip
Coming back to Thailand

Questions owners ask
Does my dog or cat need a rabies blood test to go from Thailand to Morocco?
Yes: For a stay of less than 12 months, a vet authorised by your country's authority takes a blood sample at least 30 days after the last rabies vaccination, and the result must be at least 0.5 IU/ml.
Do I need an import permit to bring my dog or cat into Morocco?
We couldn't find this in our summary of the rules, but that summary is short and still under review. Ask the official authority before you rely on it.
Will my dog or cat be quarantined in Morocco?
We couldn't find this in our summary of the rules, but that summary is short and still under review. Ask the official authority before you rely on it.
How early should I start preparing my pet for Thailand to Morocco?
With nothing done yet, start at least 4 weeks ahead for a dog. The main steps: microchip or tattoo before the rabies vaccination, rabies vaccination (inactivated vaccine) and rabies blood test, if your pet stays less than 12 months and 2 more.
