Pet Travel Question: Moving Dogs from Shanghai to the UK

Name: Judith
Number of Pets: 2
Pet Type: Dogs
Pet Breed: Labrador and Schnauzer
From: Shanghai
To: UK

What is the best way of bringing our pets back to our home in the UK? Is there a way of lessening the quarantine requirements - maybe through their staying in another country on their way? What would be an approximate cost?

Thanks,
Judith


Hello Judith,

Thanks for the question! Moving pets to the UK generally requires a bit of work, but we have helped many people figure out the logistics and make the journey safely. We even offer a free, downloadable UK Pet Travel Guide.

You're right that you'll need to work around the quarantine imposed by the rabies-free UK. Coming from Shanghai does not qualify you for the Pet Travel Scheme, so you will either need to stay in an approved country for a few months prior to entering the UK or carry out the quarantine upon arrival.

Contact us if you have more questions, and visit our site for a free consultation. Good luck with everything, Judith!
