Yes, you can bring your pet on a trip to Benin, but you must comply with the country’s pet import regulations. 

• This includes providing proof of rabies vaccination, a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian, and possibly a microchip identification for your pet.

• The health certificate should be issued within a certain time frame before your departure (typically within 10 days) and must be endorsed by an official government authority in your home country.

   

Note: Benin has specific requirements for importing pets, which may vary depending on the type of animal and its country of origin. Therefore, it’s advisable to contact the Beninian Ministry of Agriculture or your local Beninian embassy for the most up-to-date information on pet import requirements

If you lose your Benin e-visa before travelling, you should immediately access your email or the application platform where your visa was issued to re-download and print a copy of the e-visa. If you cannot retrieve the e-visa, contact the platform’s customer support team where you applied for assistance in obtaining another copy.

Recommendation: Always keep multiple copies of your e-visa in different locations (e.g., on your phone, printed in your luggage) to prevent any travel disruptions.
