TLDR : Answer Summary

Bringing a cat to Thailand via the sandbox program requires careful planning. An official veterinary health certificate is necessary, along with proof of vaccinations for rabies and leptospirosis. Additionally, you may need to obtain an import permit upon entry. It is suggested to consult groups like the Bangkok Pet Lovers group for recent experiences and advice from those who have successfully brought pets into Thailand.

An official veterinary health certificate is required for dogs and cats. You must be vaccinated against rabies and leptospirosis. Upon entry, a fee-based import permit will be issued after viewing the health certificate.
