Hi PetRelocation,

Do I need to do the rabies titer test on my pets before relocating back to UK?

Thanks,

Sue

 

Hi Sue,

Thank you for contacting us with your question. Good news: your pets do not titer tests for this relocation to the United Kingdom. In 2012 the UK relaxed their rules to fall more in line with the rest of the EU, and coming from Norway you'll have a much easier time entering the country than you would have before.

Here is a link going over the import requirements you'll need to meet. Essentially your pets will need to be microchipped and vaccinated against rabies and you'll need to secure a vet health certificate or EU pet passport. The rabies vaccines need to be given at least 21 days before the time of departure, and as always, we recommend booking your flight with a pet friendly airline.

Please let us know if you have any questions about additional logistics, and if you think you'd like some help arranging this move, feel free to fill out our quote form. Good luck with your upcoming pet move!
