Australië, Nieuw-Zeeland, Japan, Singapore) zijn het strengst en vereisen maanden voorbereidingstijd. Controleer altijd bij de officiële instantie van de bestemming voordat je iets boekt.
Het ene ding dat misgaat
Het is bijna altijd de rabiës-antistoffen(titer)test. Veel rabiësvrije of rabiësarme landen vereisen een bloedtest die een vast aantal dagen na de rabiësvaccinatie wordt afgenomen, gevolgd door een verplichte wachtperiode (vaak 3 maanden) voordat je huisdier binnen mag. Begin de keten — microchip → rabiësvaccin → titertest → wachten — al vier tot zeven maanden voor je verhuizing, in precies die volgorde, anders wacht quarantaine of een geweigerde toegang.
