How to take your pets to Uruguay

Here's everything you need to know about bringing your pets to Urugauy. It's in Spanish so you need to practice up a bit!

De países del MERCOSUR, de América y de Europa: Mascotas (Perros y gatos) Deberán solicitar en el Ministerio de Ganadería el país de origen un certificado sanitario en el que conste el estado anitario del animal y la vacuna antirrábica.

Se presentará el animal y la certificación sanitaria en la Oficina de Control Zoosanitario dependiente del Ministerio deGanadería Agricultura y Pesca, del punto de ingreso al territorio acional.

De otros países: Mascotas (Perros y gatos)

Deberán gestionar previamente en nuestro país, una autorización de ingreso donde se le fijarán las condiciones sanitarias a cumplir por el país de origen.

Si se trata de perros y gatos de criadero o cualquier otra especie (aves, mamíferos, reptiles, batracios, etc.) se deberágestionar previamente una autorización de importación en el Ministerio deGanadería Agricultura y Pesca (MGAP- Departamento de Control de Comercio Internacional -Constituyente 1476 Piso 2 Tel. 412. 63.38).

Los controles sanitarios del animal y los de la documentación serán realizados por los servicios del Ministerio de Ganaderia, agricultura y pesca en el punto de ingreso al territorio nacional.

Ahw! This is just great. So you assume that everyone of us going to this forum speaks or has an idea about the Spanish language? Well Jill, you are not a great help. If you wanted to help then you should have translated the page for us.

Thank author of this post/commentWell first... it is nice she posted some information... though a link to the govt website with that would have been nice.

Unfortunately when most people post a translation they use google bablefish to translate it and makes a complete mess out of things. Usually someone that knows exactly no Spanish would understand the Spanish better than the translated version!

Now, if you are planning to live in a Spanish Speaking Country... or travel with your pets maybe you should brush up on your Spanish a bit. Figuring out the rules to bring your pet would be a good starting point.

You will find if any Uruguayan government services offered in any kind of English. The immigration office had a sign that if you don't speak Spanish to bring a translator!

Google translations are not that perfect that those of who really speak and understand other language but its the closest thing we could get if now human translator is around.

I've used google translator for Jill's Spanish suggestion here:

From MERCOSUR countries, America and Europe: Pets (dogs and cats) should apply at the Ministry of Livestock home a health certificate showing the status of the animal and anitario rabies vaccine.

Will be presented and the animal health certification in the Office of Animal Health under the Ministry deGanadería Agriculture and Fisheries, the point of entry to the territory ational.

From other countries: Pets (dogs and cats)

Should be managed before in our country, an entry permit you to determine the health conditions to be met by the country of origin.

If it is breeding dogs and cats or any other species (birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, etc.). Deberágestionar was previously an import authorization deGanadería in the Ministry Agriculture and Fisheries (MGAP-Control Department of Commerce International Constituent 1476 Piso 2 Tel 412. 63.38).

Animal health controls and the documentation will be made by the Ministry of Livestock, Agriculture and Fisheries at the point of entry into the country.

"pet in Uruguay"

If you don't speak some Spanish, Uruguay is probably not the right country for you to live in. There's very little English spoken, so you'll need to learn Spanish plain and simple.

Thank author of this post/comment"Agree/Disagree"

I would agree that little English is spoken, but many DO KNOW English. Of course you'll always do better when you know the language somewhere... but it can be an adventure (fun) to go places and find things when you don't know the language....

But for something link bringing in pets or other official business you'll need to know the language or have something to help you.

"Greta, the lovely (ex) Argentine pacpal who is the second half"

of the name Feli(pe)Greta, i.e., Feligreta accompanied me twice to MVD from Bs As. The first time I had to take her to a Bs As vet. Then I took the paperwork the vet gave me to the Lazaro argentino, who exchanged it for a 10 day export permit. Buquebus was quite straightforward. She travelled on the auto deck while I was allowedonly int passenger cabin. Once arrived dockside at MVD, it was simply a matter of waiting for her roll-a-kennel to appear in baggage claim. The Uruguay aduana official was not only interested in the paperwork, but did also put his fingers down near the wire grille to be licked.

The return to Bs As was a bit more complex because she needed not only the vet check, but also had to physically appear at the animal control office on outer Millan where her face was compared to a picture of her that accompanied her paperwork (something to do, the official explained with past attempts to bring in ringer race horses.) Once again the BQB part was simple.

The Argentines also welcomed her with minimal hassle.

We were in Bs As less than 48 hours so had no time to complete the Argentine tramites to reexport Greta. But she was on one cart of 17 filled with household goods. Buquebus called Aduana argentina

rather than have us go through the normal line. Aduana checked a few carts, then said, "Looks like you're moving to Uruguay." When I agreed that was he case he had me put all stuff through a scanner. When we came to the last cart, I explained that I didn't want it scanned. He looked, then said, "There's a dog inside." I explained that she was Uruguayan.

He said, "Okey." Stamped, and sealed.

Once in Uruguay, a very happy Greta was welcomed home by the same folks who had seen her off two days before. No one looked at her paperwork.

For the nonspellers: Urugauy and Monte Video is Montevideo (monte-vid-day-o), real estate agents are "Inmobiliaria", and of course Uruguay is not spelled Uraguay. 2990126493
