This list of pets is limited to cats, dogs and birds. You can import no more than one cat, one dog, one bird and 10 fish.

Control of pets is carried out by veterinarians appointed at air, land and sea border points where passengers enter Turkey. The importation of pets into Turkey is permitted after completion of veterinary control.

Necessary documents for transporting animals to Turkey:
-International Veterinary Passport, called Certificate of Origin. It is issued in the country from which the animal is exported. The passport contains information that the pet is healthy and has received all vaccinations.
