Travel advice
Traveling with a pet requires preparation: passports, vaccinations, antiparasitic treatments, and entry requirements per country. I will map everything out for you so you won’t forget a thing and can leave completely stress-free.
-
Correct travel documents and their validity (e.g., pet passport, health certificate)
Verification of required vaccinations
Scheduling preventative parasite medication tailored to the destination
Entry requirements for different countries
Assistance in locating a nearby veterinary clinic for any necessary tests, if required
-
At least 4 weeks before departure for EU destinations
At least 3 months before departure for destinations outside the EU (UK, Japan, Australia, etc.)
Running late? Contact me anyway
-
An overview of required documents: passport, vaccination records, health certificate
A clear timeline: what needs to be arranged and when, leading up to departure
Parasite treatments (fleas, ticks, worms) specific to your destination
Advice on travel stress and sedatives if your pet is an anxious traveler
Referrals to relevant authorities (such as the NVWA, embassies, or airlines)
-
My pet already has an EU passport — is that enough?
An EU passport is required, but it is not always sufficient. Depending on your destination, additional vaccinations or an official health certificate may be necessary.
Can I also request advice for my cat or ferret?
Yes, this advice applies to dogs, cats, and ferrets.
What if the regulations change after I receive my advice?
My advice is based on the most up-to-date information available at the time of your request, which will be explicitly stated in the report.

Please note that pet passports, microchips, vaccinations, Echinococcus (tapeworm) treatments, and clinical examinations cannot be provided or performed remotely. If any deficiencies or gaps regarding these requirements are identified during the online travel consultation, I will refer you to a local veterinary clinic in your area.
