Pet Travel Scheme: EU Countries
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, when pet passports will be available for travel between the UK and EU.
Answered by Daniel Zeichner
We have agreed to establish a UK-EU Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) Zone, which will mean taking pets on holiday into the EU will be easier and cheaper.
Instead of getting an animal health certificate each time you travel, you will be able to get a multiuse pet passport valid for travel to the EU.
It’s important that we get the right agreement for the UK, so we will provide more information on pet passports valid for travel to the EU in due course.
