Dear PetRelocation,

What are the travel requirements for my dog if we go from Canada to London?

Thank you,

Connie

Hi Connie,

Thanks for contacting us with your question about dog travel from Canada to the UK. We're here to help you navigate the process and ensure that your furry companion has a safe and smooth journey.

First, it's important to note that the pet import requirements for the UK have become more relaxed in recent years. While there used to be a 180-day quarantine, you'll be pleased to know this is no longer required.

As Canada is an approved non-EU country for pet travel to the UK, here are the key steps you need to follow:

  • Microchip: Your dog must be microchipped for identification purposes.
  • Rabies Vaccine: Your dog must receive a rabies vaccine after the microchip is implanted.
  • Wait Period: You must wait at least 21 days from the day of the rabies vaccination before traveling to the UK.
  • Vet Health Certificate: Obtain a health certificate issued by a licensed veterinarian, certifying that your dog is healthy and fit for travel.

We understand that relocating your pet can be a complex and sometimes overwhelming experience. That's why our team of pet relocation experts is here to offer comprehensive guidance, support, and coordination throughout the entire process. From understanding the import requirements to arranging safe transport for your dog, we're dedicated to making your pet's move to the UK as easy and stress-free as possible.

Best regards,
