Hello everyone!
I would like to move to cyprus with my dog. From Hungary.
My dog is a pitbull type. In his passport mix-dog is his breed.
My dog is socialized, she loves dogs and people.
Would this move be possible?
Thanks, your answer!

It appears they’re illegal in Cyprus and thank God for that…

NB: Don’t assume that just because it’s a “half pit” or whatever, it’s gonna be OK… you’ll lose the dog.

I have flown in family cats from Russia and New Zealand and a Dog from Estonia. Provided all the jabs are done and documented and proper notice is given to the authorities it is normally not hard: Try here for information.

That is the official site and best bet is to talk to vetinary services.

However as GR states some breeds are banned. These are : Pit Bull Terrier or American Pit Bull, Japanese Tosa or Tosa Inu, Dogo Argentino or Argentinian Mastiff, Fila Brasileiro or Brazilian Mastiff therefore if your dog is in fact a Pit Bull this may not be a normal import and you may well have problems and may loose the dog . There is no gurantee that describing it as mixed beed in the pasport will help
