Microchips
In order to identify your dog, cat or ferret, it must be fitted with a microchip. At check-in, we’ll need to check that your pet’s microchip number matches the microchip number on their documentation.
A tattoo from any country in the world is acceptable, as long as it was done before 3 July 2011.
When your vet is completing your pet’s official travel documents, make sure the date of implantation or the date of reading of the microchip is on or before the date of your pet’s rabies vaccination.
Your pet (who must be at least 12 weeks old at time of vaccination) must be vaccinated against rabies. There is no exemption to this requirement.
The vaccine name and manufacturer, as well as vaccination date, valid from and expiry dates must be recorded in the AHC or EU Pet Passport by a registered vet (signature and stamp or vet details are mandatory) in the relevant boxes in Rabies Section of the EU Pet Passport or AHC.
There is no exemption to this requirement. If you are travelling from EU and listed non-EU countries, the length of the waiting period before entry to the UK is 21 days after the vaccination date (the vaccination date counts as day 0). A waiting period is not required for subsequent entries into the UK, provided rabies boosters are kept up to date and recorded in your pet’s official documentation. If the vaccination is in two parts the 21 day wait will be from the date of the second vaccination.
Travel to/from the EU must take place within the current vaccination validity.
When the vet is completing your pet’s official travel documents (AHC or EU Pet Passport), make sure the date of implantation or date of reading of the microchip is the same date as, or before, the rabies vaccination.
