Pets and Animals in Portugal

An animal arriving in Portugal from another EU country must be accompanied by a health certificate (Atestado Sanitario) issued by the competent authority in the animal's country of origin. The certificate should state that the animal is in good health and does not come from a region where contagious diseases, such as Rabies, prevail. It should be translated into Portuguese and presented to the customs authorities on arrival in Portugal.

The competent authority in Britain is the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, Nobel House, 17 Smith Square, London, SW1P, 3JR. Tel: 00 44 0207 238 6000.
