Phnom Penh - Post Report Question and Answers
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?
Very good veterinarians here and decent kennel services available. Ask around to many people before picking a kennel service as we know some that had pets get very sick (or die) at while in their care. Dogs do not need to be quarantined upon entry. Other considerations would be Cambodia is on the list of countries now requiring the particular titer test if a dog is traveling to the US without a rabies test from the US. - Jul 2021
There are a couple of options. - Nov 2020
There are a few Western vets in the city who will be able to take good care of your pet, assuming they don't need particularly complicated care. Not sure about a quarantine but probably not. Sadly, it's not uncommon for dogs to go missing and many are stolen for food. The situation for animals is pretty heartbreaking. There are no laws about animal abuse and a very limited public understanding of or compassion for animal well-being and suffering. Be prepared to have your heart broken a lot. - May 2017
Yes there is one European Vet (Agrovet)that is decent though resources were limited. Bringing pets in and out was easy. No quarantine. - Oct 2016
If flying through Bangkok, be sure to double-check airline pet policies and pet visa requirements. Entry into Cambodia was easy, with no quarantine or regulations beyond the usual rabies shot and health certificate. Most expats use Agrovet veterinarian, which is very good. I brought all cat food/litter with me. As seems usual overseas, pet food is expensive in Phnom Penh. The city overall has very, very little green space for dogs. - Feb 2015
