Apologies!!!! You're importing FROM the UK!

In that case you should look at bringing them as accompanied baggage if you can as this is loads cheaper and easier then bringing them as cargo.

A pet relocation company can arrange the import permit for you.

Your best bet is to contact a Quarantine kennels in the UK for a quote regarding costs that end and a pet relocation company here for this ends fees.

It all depends on how many cats you are taking, the kennels you choose, how much of it you do yourself and whether you employ a pet relocator to take on all the customs & paperwork this end.

www.qatarpetrelocators.com should be able to answer some of it.

Only a guideline,as I'm sure 2 cats will be much less,but we imported 2 dogs in June.The total cost was just over 2k.That was everything...all vet checks,import certs, travel crates and transport to Heathrow from Bristol,and 4 days in the export kennels.(Bristol). All we did was take them to Bristol and then meet them at this end.We did our own collection as it saves a lot of money,and is not difficult,contrary to what some people say. Hope that helps you a bit!
