TaxiDog: Bringing Dogs and Cats to the UK After Brexit: The Ultimate Guide to Safe Transport

TaxiDog Daniele: Pet Transport to the UK After Brexit: The Safe Way | TaxiDog

 

Since the United Kingdom left the European Union (Brexit), bringing your pet to London or any other English city has become a real bureaucratic challenge. Rules have changed, checks are strict, and many airlines no longer allow pets to travel in the cabin into the UK, forcing owners to use expensive and stressful "Cargo" services.

If you need to move to the UK, don't despair. Ground transport offered by TaxiDog Daniele is now the simplest, safest, and least stressful solution for crossing the Channel.

 

Why Avoid Flying to the UK?

Flying into the UK with a pet is complicated. British law prevents most commercial airlines from landing pets in the cabin. This forces the animal to travel as "freight" in the hold (Cargo), with costs that can exceed a thousand euros and very long customs clearance procedures at the airport.

 

The TaxiDog Solution: Ground Travel via Eurotunnel

We offer a direct and comfortable alternative. We cross the border by land (usually via Eurotunnel or ferry), directly managing checks at the dedicated Pet Reception.

  • No Traumatic Separation: Your pet remains cared for in our climate-controlled vehicles, without being "stored" in airport warehouses.

  • Customs Management: We know exactly how to handle French and English border controls, preventing entry refusals.

 

Documents: What Is Needed Today?

Bureaucracy is the pain point, but we guide you step-by-step. To enter the UK, you need:

  1. Microchip (must be scanned before any other procedure).

  2. Rabies Vaccination (valid and administered at least 21 days prior).

  3. Animal Health Certificate (AHC): A complex certificate that has replaced the EU passport for entry into the UK (or the passport itself if issued in UK/EU with specific rules).

  4. Tapeworm Treatment: Mandatory for dogs, to be administered between 24 and 120 hours before arrival. We plan the trip to perfectly respect this critical time window.

 

Trust those who know the route. With TaxiDog Daniele, your pet will arrive at your home in England stress-free and without bureaucratic hitches.
