  1. Before you go

    Microchip (ISO 11784/11785)

    Microchip is not strictly required here but strongly recommended; implant it before the rabies vaccine.

  2. Still valid the day you arrive

    Rabies vaccine still valid on arrival

    Your pet's rabies vaccine must still be valid on the day you cross. Check the 'valid until' date on the vaccination record and book a booster before it runs out.

  3. 21 to 335 days before you arrive

    Rabies vaccination

    Vaccinate against rabies after the microchip. It must be at least 21 days old and no more than 11 months old on the entry date.

  4. Within 10 days before you arrive

    Veterinary health certificate

    A vet examines the pet and completes the health certificate no more than 10 days before entry.

  5. By the day you arrive

    Parasite treatment

    Treat for Echinococcus (dogs) plus internal/external parasites shortly before travel.

  6. By the day you arrive

    Government endorsement of the certificate

    The official veterinary authority of the country you depart from signs/stamps the health certificate.

  7. At the border

    Veterinary check on arrival

    Arrive at Heydar Aliyev International Airport (Baku) and present the pet to the veterinary inspector.
