🇱🇻 Pet Import to Latvia

Latvia is an EU member state, so pet imports are governed by the bloc's harmonised pet travel rules rather than a separate national regime. A microchip must be implanted before the rabies vaccine is given, and the pet needs an EU pet passport (for EU-origin animals) or an official veterinary health certificate (for third-country arrivals) confirming vaccination status. No routine quarantine applies to compliant pets. Owners travelling from countries outside the EU's approved rabies-free/low-risk list must additionally arrange a rabies antibody titer test at an approved laboratory, timed so at least three months elapse between the blood draw and arrival. This is a skeleton entry pending verification against the current national implementing rules and the EU TRACES pet travel portal.
