Enforcement Rules of Statute for Prevention and Control of Infectious Animal Diseases Article 26

Animals that are in isolation quarantine in accordance to the provisions specified in Paragraph 1 of Article 34-1 of the Statute are to be claimed by the importer at the end of the isolation quarantine period. Otherwise, an additional charge at 50% of the detention fee will be imposed for each day thereafter. If animals are not claimed fourteen days after the isolation quarantine period, the import/export animal quarantine authority may inform the agent of the importer to pay off the detention charge and the advanced fee, and instruct the agent to file with the customs an application for closing the case by presenting the relevant veterinary certificate. The isolation quarantined animals will then be handed to the agent on behalf of the owner.
