New Born Pup
Hi All,
I have tried to read a lot about this, but some information might be outdated, some information confusing, so I thought I ask better to be on the safe side.
Unfortunately, one of our 2 pigs is a bit unwell, so we would like to take them with us to a trip to Germany by car, using the Eurotunnel train. We have done longer trips with them before, so we're not worried about the trip itself, but about the regulations:
a) When we leave the UK, we need this form to be filled out be a vet (within 10 days of travel), right? https://www.leshuttle.com/getmedia/..._pet_rodents_reptiles_and_ornamental_fish.pdf This will also mean that they will need a treatment against parasites.
b) Then we can say on the Eurotunnel booking that we will carry / transport pets
c) Once in France we are in the Schengen area and can travel freely to Germany
d) I was wondering about going back (around 3.5 weeks later): Do we need the above (French) form again? If so, I guess we will have to find a vet in German who will fill out the English/French form for us. I guess treatment against parasites is not needed again, because the form says something like up to 40 days before travel, so that the return should still be covered by the treatment when we left
e) Also, when entering the UK, we can write our own declaration (Bringing pets to Great Britain)
f) Are there any further requirements or things to consider?
Many thanks &
Best wishes,
Andre
