Pet Passports
The pet travel scheme (PETS) allows dogs, cats and ferrets to travel through the EU and certain other countries based on passport, microchip, rabies vaccination, and pre-travel checks.
Planning Pet Travel Post Brexit
Currently from rabies vaccination to travel is a 21 day wait with no post vaccination blood testing required.
Prior to travel:
- • You could be required to blood test 3 months prior to travel
- • Vaccination given a minimum 30 days before blood test
- • If you currently hold a valid pet passport, check rabies antibody levels 4-5 months ahead
- • For pets without a valid passport wishing to travel, book for vaccination ASAP and blood test 30 days later
