Pet Travel; All cats, dogs and other animals being imported will require an Import permit from the Veterinary Head Office in Accra. The pet owner will need to provide a export health certificate signed, stamped and dated by a licensed government veterinarian in the country of origin within 48 hours of export. The pet must also be accompanied by a rabies vaccination certificate showing that it had been vaccinated at least 30 days, but not more than 6 months prior to entering the Gambia. We strongly advise pets are micro-chipped before being vaccinated against rabies.
These are guidelines only which are subject to change. Contact the Embassy of Ghana for current requirements about bringing pets into their country.
