Relocating a dog or cat to or from Port de La Mer?
Port de La Mer is one of Dubai’s most distinctive beachfront communities — a Mediterranean-style marina district of low-rise apartments set along La Mer beach in Jumeirah, popular with beach-loving dog owners and families who want sand and seafront on their doorstep. Its promenades and shoreline make it a natural home for active pets, and a community we relocate dogs and cats to and from regularly. Whether you are arriving from abroad into a Port de La Mer apartment or leaving the UAE for a new posting, we handle the permits, paperwork and transport so you can focus on settling in.

Moving To or From Port de La Mer With a Pet
Most Port de La Mer relocations are international — families arriving from the UK, USA, India, Australia and across Europe, or leaving Dubai for a new posting. The requirements depend on your origin or destination country, but the core steps are the same: a valid microchip, current vaccinations, a government health certificate, and a MOCCAE permit valid for 90 days. The MOCCAE permit itself costs AED 200 per pet, plus an airport release fee on arrival.
From low-risk countries the timeline is typically 2–6 weeks. A rabies titer test is only required when moving from or to certain high-risk countries — in those cases plan for around four months because of the mandatory waiting period. We map your exact timeline before you commit.
Pet-Friendly Living in Port de La Mer
Port de La Mer is beachfront, low-rise living, which makes it one of the more rewarding Dubai neighbourhoods for dog owners — the beach promenade and marina walkways are ideal for daily walks, and the sea is right at the door. Most residents keep dogs and cats in apartments, and while many buildings are pet-friendly, policies vary, so check your tenancy terms. We can advise on crate acclimation for apartment pets ahead of travel day.
Cost of Pet Relocation in Port de La Mer
Total cost depends on your route, pet size and service level — typically AED 2,000 to AED 25,000. Government fees include the MOCCAE permit at AED 200 per pet plus an airport release fee, working out to roughly AED 700 per dog and AED 450 per cat overall; the rest covers veterinary work, crate, cargo and coordination.
Local Veterinary Support in Port de La Mer
Port de La Mer and the surrounding Jumeirah 1 area are well served by veterinary clinics for the microchip, vaccination and health-certificate steps your pet needs before travel. We coordinate timing with your vet so every document is valid on travel day — and if you prefer, we can recommend a vetted clinic nearby.
