Travelling to Britain with dogs and pets

Bringing furry friends

Dogs, cats and ferrets from certain countries are able to enter Britain via selected ports of entry under the pilot Pets Travel Scheme without quarantine – provided certain conditions are met.

Τα υπόλοιπα ζώα τίθενται σε καραντίνα έξι μηνών εντός εγκεκριμένων εγκαταστάσεων. Δεν πραγματοποιούνται εξαιρέσεις και ενδέχεται να θανατωθεί οποιοδήποτε ζώο έχει εισαχθεί παράνομα. Ο κανονισμός αυτός ισχύει επίσης για τα Νησιά της Μάγχης.

Work is continuing on an assessment of the risks if pets from other parts of the world are exempted from quarantine, and an announcement will be made once this work has been completed.
