Relocating your pet to another country can be a daunting task. With numerous documents to fill in and regulations to follow, the process can seem overwhelming. Different countries have unique entry requirements, adding to the complexity. However, with PetAir UK, you can have peace of mind knowing that your pet is in expert hands.
Why choose a pet relocation company like PetAir UK?
PetAir UK, the leading pet relocation partner for British Airways, specialises in transporting pets safely and comfortably worldwide. Run by expert professionals, PetAir UK operates to the highest welfare standards internationally. They offer a complete, stress-free service that includes flights, pet carriers, vet work, permit applications, and door-to-door delivery.
The Benefits of PetAir UK's Expertise
One of the standout benefits of using PetAir UK is the involvement of experienced professionals throughout the entire process. From the initial booking to the actual flight, having experts involved ensures:
• Comprehensive Health Checks: Your pet's health is thoroughly evaluated, ensuring they are fit to travel and comply with destination health requirements.
• Expert Handling: Professionals oversee the handling and care of your pet, minimising stress and ensuring their well-being.
• Tailored Advice: Get personalised advice on preparing your pet for travel, including tips on acclimatisation and comfort during the journey.
Preparing for Pet Travel
To ensure a smooth relocation process, here are the essential steps you need to follow:
1. Health Check and Vaccinations:
o Schedule a thorough health check with your vet to ensure your pet is fit to travel.
o Ensure all vaccinations are up-to-date. Rabies vaccination is mandatory for most destinations.
2. Microchipping:
o Your pet must be microchipped with an ISO-compliant chip. This is often a legal requirement for international pet travel.
3. Documentation:
o Animal Health Certificate: For travel to EU countries or Northern Ireland, you need an animal health certificate, signed by an Official Vet within 10 days of travel.
o Export Health Certificate (EHC): For non-EU countries, an EHC is required. This certificate ensures that your pet meets the health requirements of the destination country. You’ll also need to complete an export application form (EXA) if you're in England, Scotland, or Wales.
Travelling with Your Pet
EU and Northern Ireland
Post-Brexit, the pet travel system has changed. Here are the current requirements:
• Microchip
• Valid rabies vaccination
• Animal health certificate
• Tapeworm treatment for dogs if travelling directly to Finland, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Norway, or Malta
Non-EU Countries
For travel outside the EU, you will need:
• Export health certificate
• Completed export application form
• Compliance with specific health and identification requirements

On the Plane
Pets travel in the hold of the aircraft, a special area that is both heated and pressurised to ensure their comfort. PetAir UK uses custom-built wooden pet carriers that exceed minimum safety guidelines. These carriers are designed to minimise noise and temperature variation, lined with veterinary bedding and incontinence pads to ensure maximum comfort.
Arrival and Settling In
Upon arrival, present all necessary documents to customs. Some countries may require a veterinary inspection upon entry. Ensure you follow all local guidelines to help your pet acclimate to their new environment.
