Rules for import of dogs, cats and ferrets into Norway
Published: 14.12.2004 Last updated: 25.02.2005

The Norwegian rules are based on Commission Regulation (EC) No 998/2003 and concern only pets which are accompanied by their owner or a person responsible for them on behalf of the owner and which are not intended to be sold or transferred. If the number of animals imported is more than five, the conditions of so-called commercial imports apply.

If an animal imported to Norway does not meet the requirements described above, by an official decision of the authority, the animal is:
a) returned to the country of origin, or
b) isolated under official control at the cost of the importer for the time necessary for it to meet the requirements, or
c) as a last resort, where its return or isolation in quarantine is not possible, put down at the cost of the importer.
