I am told by DEFRA that you have to have another passport, all the information from the 1st passport has to be transferred to the new one and you have to carry the 2 passports together. Please be careful what they tell you and clarify it by ringing back again at another time.Īlso I need additional pages as our dogs passport vets pages are full. Yet their website reads you have to wait 21 days before you enter or re-enter the UK not before you leave the UK. I have to say that DEFRA is not always correct, having just spoken to a young lady who told be that you have the wait 21 days before you leave the country after the Rabies Vax is given and the passport stamped. We travel 3 times a year with our dogs and have recently had a new puppy who will be joining us. Good to see someone took the initiative and gave people the information they can’t get elsewhere, well not without a lot of bother!

I thankyou for any advice and infornation you can give us …Many Thanks and Kind Regards Gary Ward. Our 2 cats mean a lot to us so, I wonder of you could kindly shed some light on this for us. As we are driving to the uk, we would like to bring them with us but, the journey will take 72 hours at least as we may stop in a hotel guesthouse over night so, my question is if after 48 hrs, say in Germany,Belguim, Holland or France can I take my 2 cats to a local approved vet and get the required ticks/worm and fitness to travel restamped for the 2 half of the journey. We will transport them in a approved pet carrier that has food and water trays fitted and travel by an approved route to an approved port of entry to the UK. and also have a medical check to give them a 48 hr fitness to travel.

I must have them wormed and treated against ticks/fleas. I know under the rules I do not need the 6 months quarrentine but must have my 2 cats chipped, vaccinated against rabies and the blood tests results recorded in the eu approved pet passport. I am thinking to return to the uk from latvia.
