After much consideration, including costs, size of pets and so on. It looks like my best option is to Fly from Canada to Paris or Amsterdam and Take Trains, and the EuroTunnel into the UK.
So far what I have found out is I will need:
1. Pets Microchipped (ISO Standard)
2. Rabies Vaccine (Minimum 21 days prior, within vaccine expiration, Also must be done after microchip)
3. EU Annex IV veterinary Certificate (CFIDA endorsed)
4. EU Declaration Form (non-commercial transit)
5. Official Health Certificate issued by vet and endorsed by CFIDA valid for 10 days (Valid for 4 months once in the EU, or up to Rabies vaccine validity, which ever date is earlier)
Extra for UK
1. Dogs - Treatment against Echinococcus multiolcularis (UK) - Before I leave Canada, Must be at least 24 hours before entering UK, and before 120 hours.
Which route will be easier to bring the pets?
- I am thinking France as I do not need to travel as far to get to the EuroTunnel
- Using a Taxi for a EuroTunnel
- Cargo does not work for my dog as she weighs 4lbs
Based on my list above am I missing any documentation? Anything I should be aware of before traveling / issues I might run into?
I will be flying all of my pets in Cabin with the appropriate airlines.
