Moving your pet to Australia on your own is doable — if you know the order of the steps

We have been moving cats and dogs from Poland to Australia for fifteen years, and we have put the whole process into one guide: where to go, what to sign, by when, and what it costs. No generalities — real institutions, real dates, real sums.

Why this is worth having. Preparation takes 6–8 months, and almost every mistake means starting over: a new vaccination, a new test and another 180 days of waiting. This guide is written so that you get through it the first time.

What is inside

Five deal-breakersA 10-minute check on whether your animal can be exported at all. Banned breeds, residence periods, health status.
The logic of four datesWhy the 180 days are not counted from the vaccination, and how not to lose six months to the wrong start date.
Ten steps in detailFrom the microchip to release from quarantine: where, with whom, with which documents and in what order.
Where to go in PolandThe county inspectorate, the laboratory in Puławy, what happens at each appointment and which stamps are mandatory.
An exact cost breakdownOfficial Australian fees, costs in Poland, the price of the flight. All in euros and złoty, data as of 13 October 2026.
Twelve common mistakesEach one costs six months and several thousand. All of them taken from real transports.
How to measure your animalThe measuring diagram and the crate-size formula. The price of the flight depends on it.
Working formsAn animal record card, a countdown calendar from the departure date, checklists for the vet visit and for the final document package.

Frequently asked questions

Do I get the file straight away?Yes. The download link is emailed automatically, within a minute of payment.
Is the information really current?All fees and requirements were checked against the Australian Department of Agriculture website on 13 October 2026. The rules there change, so the guide includes links to the official pages so you can verify them yourself.
Is it useful if I am not in Poland?The guide is written for export from Poland: Polish institutions, Polish prices, the Polish order of steps. The overall logic and Australia's requirements are the same across the EU, but the specific addresses and forms will differ.
What if I realise I cannot do it myself?Write to us. We will handle the move end to end — from the paperwork to handing your animal over to quarantine in Melbourne.
Can I pay by card?Yes. The Buy button takes you to Payhip's secure checkout: card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or PayPal. The files arrive in your inbox as soon as the payment goes through.
