Introduction
Indonesia handles pet imports through Barantin (Karantina), the quarantine authority. The two main entry points for pets from Thailand are Jakarta (CGK) and Bali (DPS). Both follow the same basic rules — and the good news is no waiting period after the titer for Indonesia.
What you need
- ISO microchip, implanted before rabies vaccine
- Current rabies vaccine, given at least 30 days before travel
- Rabies titer report (≥ 0.5 IU/mL), but no waiting period — your pet can travel as soon as the report is in hand
- Import permit issued by Karantina
- Health Certificate from Thai DLD
Convey team's note: Indonesia is one of the easier destinations among rabies-titer-required countries because of the "no wait" rule. Once the titer passes, you can fly immediately.
Entry process at the airport
On arrival at CGK or DPS, your pet goes through Karantina inspection before customs. If documents are complete, clearance is typically same-day. Some cases involve a brief observation period at the quarantine facility, then release.
