An Eco-Friendly, Space-Efficient Solution for Urban Pet Aftercare

A Legal Compliance Guide for Pet Aftercare Businesses in Thailand & Vietnam

Starting a Pet Aquamation business is not just about owning advanced equipment—it’s also about complying with all local regulations and permits. Since this service involves handling animal remains and using chemicals, governments in Thailand and Vietnam enforce specific standards to ensure public and environmental safety.

As a professional Pet Aquamation machine manufacturer, here is a general guide to the licenses and documents you’ll need to prepare.
