The EU Pet Travel Scheme

We do micro chipping, vaccination, blood test for rabies titre for UK and all other EU countries under EU pet travel scheme.

European regulation 998/2004 has taken effect from 3rd July 2004. Its set out the rules for pet animals traveling between European Union (EU) countries and into the EU from other countries.

To enter or re-enter the UK from a Non – EU listed country without quarantine a pet must, in this order, be microchiped, vaccinated against rabies and blood tested, issued with an EU pet passport or an official third country veterinary health certificate and treated against ticks and tapeworms.
