It is illegal to bring dogs into Bali at present because of the rabies epidemic even if they have been vaccinated. The best people I know of to talk to about updates are Groovy Pets in Jakarta. They have a website and you can find their email address on there.

it's been illegal for a long time, but that's not something that would stop someone from bringing there dog into Bali...I did it, and alot of other expats and non-expats do it as well.

Hi Did you guys deal with someone special at the Groovy Pets? My wife called them this morning because we have a dog in Jakarta that we would love to bring to Bali and they told her that they don't bring animals to Bali because illegal. Have anybody used services from Groovy Pets recently ? Many thanks Andy

Would you tell anyone you do not know on the phone you will do something illegal? Anyway,I think this whole conversation should not be held here in public,but by private messages.

As i know, ( info from the quarantine biro, at Gilimanuk, the dog will entering trough some legal procedure before it can live freely in Bali) My Goldie is like a 2nd daughter to me. it's hard to live without it. next month I will move in to Bali. I am Holding the rabies free paper from the pet doctor. also all the birth certificate and other paper needed to shown that it. Also a lot of money.. because the procedure will be costly.. .. wanna join me ?

you're being set-up for a costly "blackmail"....either you pay, or your dog gets put down, since already entering Bali with a dog you are wrong and will be held accountable.. on top of that you have broken the law, and can be fined (maybe jailed).. So before bringing your dog to Bali yourself, get everything on paper from the big bosses on both sides of the crossing (Ketapang and Gillimanuk)...I doubt very much they will give you this... so for the sake of your dog, reconsider your options...

sharing you a contact. just try to call him 0818-753-669/0859-2123-9559 ALVIN. try to speak in bahasa, or a simple english. usually they use lion air cargo. From what I read in the indonesian animal forum, its hard to ship a dog to bali, yes, due to rabies. but just give a try. there is also a planet petshop at gajahmada, lately he had this bad reputation, shipping 3 st bernard dogs and all 3 arrives dead. this pet shop put 3 huge dog in one kennel. fiuh.

yeah right LION air cargo :icon_lol: you're joking, if not then you seriously need to check your info

https://indonesia.nl/ here's a link from the Indonesian Embassy in the Hague, here's the text in the link : Transporting Pets to Indonesia Pets, such as dogs, cats etc, can be transported to Indonesia by requesting a letter of permission to the: Departemen Pertanian (Ministry of Agriculture) Up. Direktorat Jenderal Peternakan Jl. Harsono RM No. 3-Ragunan-Jakarta 12550 Indonesia. Specification of the pets (name, race, age, color and any other marks) must be mentioned in that letter. Documents sent to Ministry of Agriculture should be completed with other documents which have been legalized by the Netherlands Ministry of Justice and Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia in The Hague. The aforesaid documents as follows: Health certificate from the veterinarian Rabies vaccination certificate from veterinarian that is still valid at least 1 month before departing to Indonesia. Director of Animal Directorate, Ministry of Agriculture will issue a letter of attestation that is valid for 1 month to gain a permission of animal entrance to Indonesia (import permit) from the animal quarantine, terminal A, Soekarno-Hatta Airport. The same procedure is also applied to bring out animals from Indonesia (export permit). Important Notice Animal rabies contaminators, such as dogs, cats, monkeys, and so on are not allowed to enter rabies-free areas, namely Central Java, East Java, Yogyakarta, Bali, Madura, West Nusa Tenggara and East Nusa Tenggara. Clearly Bali isn't rabies free, so if I read right...dogs are allowed into Bali :icon_lol:

Or maybe the information should be updated :icon_e_confused:

@jimbo "it's dated 24-05-2011" :icon_wink:

it's nowhere to be found, written in/on a government website...it should have been written at the website of dep.peternakan dan hewan. but there's only cows and cows :icon_lol: anyways, it's semi legal and semi illegal...how to travel from jakarta to bali, without passing through the area's mentioned (above), secondly if I am not mistaken decisions on national level preceed decisions on provincial level? still in my opinion (humble) it's not dangerous in relation to rabies to import dogs, exporting dogs now that could be hazardous..

When I searched "Indonesia quarantine" I found this blog post from a company that has been mentioned here before. Everyone says it is illegal to bring dogs to Bali, which I don't doubt is true, as that is what I have read in many places, but I would just like to try and find where this is written down.
