If the pup is going one way only it doesn't need the bloodtest either. We drove a puppy over to Copenhagen, Denmark a couple of years ago. Chilli was over 12 weeks so had her microchip done and rabies jab and because her owner had no plans to take her outside of Denmark she was able to have a 'Half Pet Passport' issued ie no blood test required. We drove over 2500 miles in 4 days but we did it because the cost was no more than flying her an so much less stressful for her. It meant we saw her…

It meant we saw her transition from being our pup to being Kirstens' in a matter of hours lovely to see. We also went via the Eurotunnel which meant we were able to stay in the car with her too through France, Belgium, Holand and Northern Germany. Unfortunately we weren't able to go via Harwich - Esberg as they don't allow pets - probably due to the length of crossing - although it would have been simpler!

I think there is a website on the internet which gives guidance about the requirements of many different countries for importing dogs. It seems quite authoritative, but in fact is often wrong.<br />
I have also in the past made inquiries with UK based companies who specialise in animal transport and export, and have found that they also give wrong advice and information.<br />
They will ask you to bring the dog to them two or three days before it leaves, so they can do all necessary paperwork…

They will ask you to bring the dog to them two or three days before it leaves, so they can do all necessary paperwork ,vaccinations, parasite treatment and health certification and Pet Passport, for which they charge rip off prices, and also do some things which are not even required by the importing country<br />
I do all my own paperwork and travel arrangements, and find it a lot simpler and less expensive<br />
For most European countries a puppy under 3 months need only a microchip and Pet Passport, . There is a page for health certification in the Pet Passport (just make sure the vets complete it) , so you shouldnt need a seperate health cert for airtravel, whatever the pet transport specialists tell you Dee, one of mine went to Pola…tag:irishsetters.ning.com,2010-10-17:865021:Comment:4021472010-10-17T21:08:36.673ZMargaret Sierakowskihttps://irishsetters.ning.com/profile/MargaretSierakowski
Dee, one of mine went to Poland in September, he didnt have a rabies shot before he went, as my vet wont do it before three months at the earliest, no problem entering Poland.

Hi there Margaret<br></br>
If the puppy is around the 8 week mark you don't normally need the Rabies, but they do need their usual vaccinations from the UK, and chip and passport, when I sent my boy to Poland it seems that it is France that is the problem.. but my vet vaccinated at a couple of weeks after their last shot, (the boy that went to Poland didn't even realise that he had the injection, but the wee girl was really sick,) you do NOT have to wait until the Blood test come through, if they…
Hi there Margaret<br/>

It is only when they come to go through France that you may have a problem, But from Scotland you could go to Zeebrugge and this cuts out France all together, I think...Hope this will help and that it is clear enough...a bit like mud.....sorry this is Defra's comments...

Two of my puppies travelled via France to Austria last month, they had not had their rabies shots, and there was no problem. I've also had puppies fly with Air France via Paris to Germany and Austria, they hadnt had their rabies shots either

France is an exception too - we had a puppy go to Germany. They had to enter via Holland as France wont allow entry either without vaccination even under 12 weeks!!

Well yes Margaret there are a few countries with special requirements but Poland is not one of them; I didn't post the whole EU regulations (they are regulations not only recommendations) and I attach the EU papers but only have them in French.<br />
So for Poland it is as I said under 3 months only chip,passport and normal vaccinations; rabies not required, as the dog is coming from another EU country.
