Number of Pets: 2
Pet Type: Dogs

To: Trinidad and Tobago
Hi, I want to know about traveling from Egypt to Trinidad. Which forms I need to travel with my two dogs? Is it better to go to Europe first? I am from Belgium, but it is not possible to stay there for six months before leaving for Trinidad. Maybe you can help me. Many Thanks, -Karin
Hi Karin,
Thanks for your pet travel question! Moving two dogs from Egypt to Trinidad and Tobago may be a little tricky, but we'd be happy to help you plan your move. Looking at the Pet Import Requirements for Trinidad and Tobago, you'll see that, coming from country like Egypt, your dogs will be subject to a 6 month quarantine. You'll need to apply for quarantine space well in advance, so it's best to start your travel planning soon. Arriving from another country may allow you to shorten or skip the quarantine, so review the list of regulations carefully as you explore all of your options.
