Moving Your Pet Dogs and Cats

Find out how to prepare your pets for life in the Netherlands...

  • The European Pet Passport (EU Pet Passport) allows for qualifying domestic animals (dogs, cats and ferrets) to freely cross borders in Europe.
  • The Pet Travel Scheme (PETS) provides for qualifying domestic pets to travel to and from the UK without undergoing quarantine.

Pet travel laws can be affected by exceptional outbreaks of diseases. Recent examples are Avian Influenza (the H5N1 strain of bird flu), Foot and Mouth disease and the Bluetongue outbreak.

The Netherlands Ministry of Agriculture provides clear information on the regulations for travelling with domestic mammals: dogs, cats and ferrets.

The Koninklijke Nederlandse Maatschappij voor Diergeneeskunde, Royal Netherlands Veterinary Association, also provides up to date information on travelling with pets.
