Pet Quarantine Stations in Australia

Dear PetRelocation,

Where can I find a quarantine location in Brisbane? I am looking all over and all I find is the Department of Agriculture site. Is that the quarantine facility?

Thanks,

Rick

Hi Rick,

Thank you for your question. The Department of Agriculture site is a great place to start -- there you'll see that when moving pets to Australia, there is now one single quarantine facility for arriving dogs and cats and it's located in Melbourne.

The Post Entry Quarantine Facility in Mickleham, Victoria opened in 2015 and it's one of the nicest animal quarantine facilities in the world. In addition to learning about fees and procedures for Mickleham, it's also important to review the overall pet import requirements for Australia as you prepare for your trip.

Please let us know if you have more questions about your upcoming move. We've helped many dogs and cats relocate to Australia (including two rescue Boxers, Bella and Thorne) and you're welcome to fill out our online consultation form if you think you'd like some similar assistance.

Thanks again for getting in touch with us, and good luck with all your future pet travels!
