Pets

Home Up

Cats and Dogs may be brought into Cyprus provided you obtain a permit from the Department of Veterinary Services and your pets have had the appropriate Vaccinations, with certificates to prove this.

A six month period of Quarantine is compulsory, although to make the process cheaper and less traumatic, Quarantine can take place in your own home.

Quarantine Fees

Government Kennels fee:
Dogs - Cyp Pounds 3.00 daily (plus VAT)
Cats - Cyp Pounds 2.00 daily (plus VAT)

Home Quarantine Fees:
Dogs - Cyp Pounds 125.00
for all the period (plus VAT)
Cats - Cyp Pounds 125.00
for all the period (plus VAT)

However, be prepared to fall in love and adapt a local 'stray' as Cypriots believe in letting 'nature take it's course' and there are therefore plenty of lovable animals (especially dogs and cats) to be found looking for good homes.
