Ein allgemeiner Leitfaden, keine tierärztliche oder rechtliche Beratung — die Einfuhrregeln für Haustiere ändern sich und hängen von Ihrem Herkunftsland und der Tierart ab. Tollwutfreie Ziele (z. B. Australien, Neuseeland, Japan, Singapur) sind am strengsten und brauchen Monate Vorlaufzeit. Bestätigen Sie immer bei der offiziellen Behörde des Ziellandes, bevor Sie etwas buchen.
Das eine, was schiefgeht
Es ist fast immer der Tollwut-Antikörpertest (Titertest). Viele tollwutfreie oder tollwutarme Länder verlangen einen Bluttest, der eine bestimmte Anzahl von Tagen nach der Tollwutimpfung erfolgt, gefolgt von einer verpflichtenden Wartezeit (oft 3 Monate), bevor Ihr Haustier einreisen darf. Beginnen Sie die Kette — Mikrochip → Tollwutimpfung → Titertest → Warten — bereits vier bis sieben Monate vor Ihrem Umzug, in genau dieser Reihenfolge, sonst drohen Quarantäne oder eine verweigerte Einreise.
