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.
