Leaving Malaysia
Leaving Malaysia needs a MAQIS export permit and a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian endorsed by DVS, always aligned to the destination country's import rules.
- Permit / authority
- MAQIS issues the export permit while DVS endorses the veterinary health certificate; both are handled online.
- Border control
- Export cargo and live-animal inspection at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL) before loading.
Entering Thailand
Thailand requires an import permit, microchip and rabies certificate; no quarantine for compliant pets.
- Permit / authority
- DLD import permit
- Border control
- None if compliant
How long it takes
- Leaving Malaysia: Plan 6–10 weeks ahead, and confirm the destination's import window because it usually drives the certificate timing more than Malaysia's own steps.
- Entering Thailand: Plan 3–6 weeks ahead
