TL;DR

For a flight with a pet from Ho Chi Minh City to Russia, check Russian import rules and your airline’s policy in advance, arrange veterinary and travel documents, and secure the pet’s place on the flight. The discussions do not name specific clinics or prices.

What the community said

Start by checking both Russian entry requirements and your airline’s pet policy: vaccination rules, carrier dimensions, pet weight limits and certificate formats can differ. For unusual cases, get a document check before booking.
