Are qualified veterinarians and/or good kennel services available? Do animals need to be quarantined upon entry to the country? Are there other considerations regarding pets that are particular to this country?
Yes, there are plenty of vets in the neighborhood. Japanese love dogs and especially cats. Yes, animals do need to be quarantined upon entry to Japan. - May 2021
Talk to the CLO well in advance of arrival. Total time to complete import requirements is 6 to 7 months. That said, our dog is happy here and it wasn't too difficult to follow the detailed Government of Japan import requirements. - Jul 2018
