Essentials for Pet Relocation from India to Europe

The process of relocating your pet to Europe can be very overwhelming for both yourself and your pet. However, ensuring strict adherence to the relocation process can give a huge sigh of relief ensuring the comfort of your pet throughout the journey.

Microchip your pet

The first and foremost is to get your pet microchipped. The microchip has to be 15-digit ISO certified. The pet can be administered a microchip by a local veterinary doctor.

Get your pet vaccinated

Immunization of pets with the vaccination made mandatory by European authorities is a must. As per European mandates getting your dog vaccinated with Anti-Rabies and DHPPiL vaccination is a must. For Cats Tri-feline vaccination is mandatory. You will also need to check country-wise vaccination mandates, before relocating your pet to any country in Europe.

3. Pet Passport

However, the Canadian government does not make it mandatory for pet owners to submit a pet passport when relocating to Europe . In Europe , a Pet Passport does not apply for the import of pets into the country. The pet passport here refers to the documents needed for the pets to enter the country.

Rabies Titer Test

Presenting the test report for the Rabies titer test is a mandate for relocating your pet from India to Europe. This test has to be done 30 days after the last vaccination of your pet by an EU-approved lab. The pet can enter Europe after 3 months of blood sample collection.

Documentation

Exporting your pet to Europe will require you to submit various documents including an Export permit from the Indian Quarantine Center. These documents may vary from country to country. Before planning your pet relocation also see our blog on pet export to particular countries in Europe.

Mode of transport

Your pet can travel either as manifest cargo or as accompanied baggage. In manifest cargo, the pet goes in a separate flight as a cargo. Some countries in Europe allow pets only as manifest cargo, hence it is important to check the country-wise list before making the flight bookings to decide the mode of transport for your pet.

Airline bookings

Not all flights to Europe allow pet transportation. Get the list of flights that allow pet travel and ideally schedule your pet's flight so that the flight timings match your flight timings.

Travel crate

Your pet will have to travel in a travel crate. It is highly advisable to train your pet to stay in the crate for long hours especially if your pet stays in the open almost all the time. Making it friendly with the crate ensures a comfortable journey for your pet. Also, procure a comfortable travel crate for your pet. It should be big enough so that your pet can easily stand, sit, lay or spin in the crate.

The process of planning for the relocation of your pet starts months before the actual departure date. Make sure to follow the correct timelines so that you can follow the guidelines strictly as stated by the importing country. Any lack of following these timelines can result in the extended stay of your pet in the arrival country's quarantine facility.
