Pet Travel Advice: Moving Dogs to Scotland

dog in ScotlandHi PetRelocation,

I was hoping to get a detailed list of the export requirements from the USA and import requirements of Scotland. I'm considering using your services and I just want to know exactly what all of the requirements are.

Thank you,
Krystle
 

 

Hi Krystle,

Thanks for the question! We'd be happy to point you in the right direction. To start, the USDA is a good source of official information; take a look here for an overview of pet import requirements to the UK.

We've also put together an overview of the United Kingdom pet travel process that can help answer many basic questions, as well. 

In addition to meeting these paperwork and vaccine requirements, you'll also want to prepare your dog for travel by helping them with travel crate acclimation. Choosing a pet friendly airline and acquainting yourself with all travel procedures is also important. To dive deeper, please read over these frequently asked pet travel questions.

If you'd like to find out more about our door-to-door services and speak to a Consultant about your move options, you're welcome to fill out our online consultation form at your convenience or give our office a call. We've helped many pets move to Scotland (including Bella the Yorkie) and would be happy to help with your dog's move, as well.

Hope this helps to get you started! Please let us know if and when we can be of further assistance, and good luck with everything.
