Anonymous participant 566 yes Australia is the hardest country to import pets too. Where OP is from (the UK) is much easier and actually the UK is a pet stop over option from Thailand for 7 months before coming back to Australia. I bought 7 pets with me to Thailand from Australia and 2 of the cats I bought were initially imported into Australia from the Ukraine. The process to import all 7 pets here, compared to just 2 into Australia was like night and day 😂 the 7 being that much easier!
