1. Getting Ready to Roam
To travel with your pet, you’ll need these essentials:
- Pet Passport or Official ID: For international/EU travel. Shows microchip number and rabies vaccination status. Issued by your vet.
- Health Certificate: Confirms your pet is fit to travel. Usually required within 7–10 (sometimes 30) days before departure—ask your vet.
- Rabies Vaccination Certificate: Proof of up-to-date rabies shot. First vaccination must be done at least 21 days before travel.
- Microchip Documentation: Most places require a microchip (ISO 11784/11785).
- Import Permit (sometimes): Needed for exotic pets or some destinations—check government sites.
Tip: Always verify requirements for both entry and return—rules can change quickly.
