How to Pet-friendly tour in Schengen country?

I have a dog whose name is Jojo. He is 3 years old and his color is brown. I was taken care of by Jojo. One day I plan to travel to Europe with Jojo but there are some teams and conditions to travel. Then I talked to the Airlines and there are rules and maintain the rules and regulations.

Pet-friendly countries prioritize pets and offer various packages, ensuring comfort, amenities, and accommodations. Many countries recognize pets and highly welcome them.

 

Here are the following rules: 

1. What is the Identification?

2. Why Rabies Test is important? 

3. What is Rabies Vaccination?

4. How to arrange a Health Certificate?

5. What is a Declaration form?

6. Quarantine

What is Marking Identification?

Need a microchip transponder because of marking identification.

 

Why Rabies Test is important? 

The rabies test is important for several reasons:

• Preventing the Spread of Rabies.

• Protecting Public Health.

• Animal Welfare.

• Legal Requirements.

• Peace of Mind for Pet Owners.

What is Rabies Vaccination?

A Rabies test is needed for every pet because without vaccination pets are not available to fly in any country so pets must be vaccinated against rabies by an authorized veterinarian. This vaccination is valid for a minimum of 21 days of coverage of the primary vaccination. Lastly, pets must be 12 weeks old after that transponder has been implanted.

How to arrange a Health Certificate? 

Pet must be accompanied by an animal health certificate issued by an official veterinarian or authorized veterinarian endorsed by the competent authority.

Pet owners traveling with their cat or dog to Europe, specifically to an EU country, will need to get an EU animal health certificate issued within 10 days before the animal enters the Union.

It’s helpful to know that non-EU European countries, such as Switzerland, will often accept this document too. However, if you’re traveling to a European country outside the EU, be sure to double-check that the EU health certificate is accepted.

What is a Declaration form?

The traveler must declare by writing and fill the form provided by airlines, also responsible for the animal care within five days of owner movement.

1. Owner Information.

2. Pet Information.

3. Health Status.

4. Vaccination Records.

5. Veterinary Examination.

6. Parasite Treatment.

7. Declaration of Compliance.

 

What is Quarantine? 

Quarantine depends on which destination to travel to the pet owner, it depends on country rules and regulations. But there is no worry about this when visiting Schengen countries. Schengen countries have adopted the “Pet Travel Scheme” (PETS) regulations, which eliminate the need for quarantine if all requirements are met.

It’s important to visit the country and complete the specific requirements as rules and regulations.
