Can Bengal Cats Move to Hong Kong?
Bengal Cat Transport to Hong Kong
Dear PetRelocation,
What are the costs for moving my cat from the UK to Hong Kong? Is there anything in particular I need, information-wise?
Does the breed affect anything? What is the effect on the pets, travel-wise? Would there be a quarantine process, and if so how long?
Any other information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Neil
Hi Neil,
Thanks, these are great questions! Moving pets to Hong Kong does require careful preparation -- here is an overview of the requirements. Among other things, you'll need to present a vaccination certificate and an animal health certificate.
According to this document, which applies to Group 1 countries like the UK, Bengal cats can only be imported if you have documentation they are fifth generation or later.
There is normally a quarantine for pets entering Hong Kong, but since you're coming from the UK you will be able to avoid it if you follow the procedures outlined by the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department of Hong Kong.
