This government-operated facility serves as the primary inspection and quarantine station for all animals and birds entering or leaving Singapore through Changi International Airport. Located within the Changi Airfreight Centre, the station conducts mandatory inspections for pets arriving in Singapore, examining animals and verifying required documentation including import licenses, vaccination records, rabies antibody reports, and veterinary health certificates. Pet owners must schedule inspection appointments at least five days in advance through the National Parks Board's online services, with walk-in inspections subject to hourly fees. The facility handles clearance procedures for pets imported as both manifested cargo and excess baggage, with different processes for each category. Animals that pass inspection and meet all import requirements are released immediately if no quarantine is needed, while those requiring quarantine are either held on-site or transported to designated quarantine centers. The station operates six days per week with extended evening hours on most days, though it closes for lunch breaks and remains closed on Sundays and public holidays. Pet owners must also obtain customs permits and may need to arrange specialized transport services for animals requiring home quarantine. The facility provides essential regulatory oversight to ensure animal health and safety standards are maintained for all pets entering Singapore.
