Hi everyone!
I was wondering if anyone here has ever done a visa run with their pet, and what the experience was like.
I’m on a METV and planning a short trip around mid–late November (haven’t decided on the destination yet). I’ll be traveling with my small dog (5 lbs, in-cabin only), and I’m trying to understand what the process looks like in terms of paperwork, airlines, and re-entering Thailand smoothly with her. Leaving her with a sitter would only be a last resort.
Any insights, tips, or advice from those who’ve done this would be really appreciated!
Thank you in advance 😊
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on doing a visa run from Thailand while traveling with their small dog. They are looking for insights into the necessary paperwork, airline requirements for in-cabin travel, and tips for re-entering Thailand with their pet. Comments suggest that having a pet passport is essential, along with meeting health requirements set by the Department of Livestock Development. There are options to consider, including leaving the pet with a sitter or at a dog hotel, as the complexities of re-entering with a pet may not outweigh the effort.
