What to Know About Pet Travel from Australia to Spain
With our unrivalled expertise in international pet moves, our team is here to help inform you all the important aspects you need to know about moving your pet to Spain. See below some of key considerations and preparation requirements for pet travel to Spain:
Microchip: Your pet must be microchipped with an ISO 11784/11785 compliant 15-digit microchip.
Rabies Vaccination: Your pet must receive a rabies vaccination at least 21 days before travel. This needs to be administered after the microchip is implanted.
EU Health Certificate: You’ll need to get an EU health certificate issued by a licensed veterinarian (this can be issued by the Jetpets vets!) and endorsed by the Australian Government Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment (DAWE). The certificate must be issued within 10 days before the travel date.
Export Permit from Australia: You must obtain an export permit from the Australian Government Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment. Our Jetpets team will be able to assist with this process as part of our services.

What Happens At The Airport?
- The captain of the aircraft is aware that your loved one is on board their flight
- The captain will set the temperature to approx. 18 degrees Celsius so that the animals are comfortable
- The cabin is dimly lit so that your loved one can see what is going on around them
- What we feel and hear in the cabin of the plane is the same as what animals experience (except in a travel crate they have much more leg room than us!)Behind the Scenes at the Airport
FAQs – International Pet Transport to Spain
Q: Are there any quarantine requirements for pets entering Spain from Australia?
Generally, there is no quarantine if all the requirements are met. Proper documentation and vaccinations will help avoid any delays or issues at customs.
Q: Is a rabies titer test required for pets travelling from Australia to Spain?
Given that Australia is considered a rabies-free country, generally a rabies titer test is not required for pets travelling from Australia to Spain. With that in mind, all other vaccination documentation requirements need to be met.
Q: What type of travel crate is needed for my pet’s journey to Spain?
You will need an IATA-approved travel crate for your pet, that should be appropriately sized to allow your pet to comfortably stand, turn around and lie down comfortably. Jetpets can provide suitable pet travel crate sizes for your pet as part of our services.
Q: What happens during customs clearance in Spain?
Upon arrival in Spain, your pet’s documents will be checked by customs officials. The team at Jetpets will ensure all paperwork is in order for a smooth customs clearance, so you won’t have to worry about unnecessary delays or issues!
Q: How far in advance should I prepare and book my pet’s move to Spain?
To allow the Jetpets team to organise and complete the necessary paperwork for your pet’s move, we recommend getting your pet travel booked with us at least 6 weeks in advance. We can then assist with arranging necessary documentation and requirements such as vaccinations, travel arrangements, crates, etc.
If you’re in need of pet travel services within a shorter notice period, please do not hesitate to contact our team as soon as possible and we’ll endeavour to help based on your situation.
Q: Can Jetpets arrange for my pet to be taken directly to my new home in Spain?
Yes, Jetpets offers door-to-door pet travel services including transporting your pet safely and directly to your new home Spain. After your pet’s arrival, customs clearance and other checks, our team can take your pet to your new address. You’ll also be able to receive updates on your pet’s travel journey so you’ll know when you’ll be next reunited with your furry companion!
