🇵🇼 Pet Import to Palau

Palau applies biosecurity controls typical of rabies-free Pacific island nations, requiring companion animals to be microchipped, vaccinated against rabies, and supported by a FAVN antibody titer test demonstrating adequate immunity, alongside an import permit obtained in advance from the Bureau of Agriculture. Because Palau's tourism economy is relatively developed compared to some Pacific neighbors, its biosecurity procedures may be somewhat more accessible, but detailed public documentation remains limited in English. No standard quarantine period is confirmed, though inspection at Roman Tmetuchl International Airport near Koror should be expected. This entry is a skeleton pending direct confirmation; travelers should contact Palau's Bureau of Agriculture well ahead of any planned relocation with a pet.

Animals generally arrive via Roman Tmetuchl International Airport near Koror, where quarantine and biosecurity officers inspect the pet and its documentation on landing.
