Within the European Union and when importing from third countries, a distinction is made according to the purpose of the movement / import of pets.

Travelling with pets

The import or intra-Community movement of pets for purposes other than trade is regulated by a special regulation. It requires the pet animal to be accompanied by its owner. As a rule, this is the case for holiday travellers (travel regulation).

Cross-border trade in pet animals

If pets are imported for the purpose of trade or moved within the Community, the rules of the Directive issued for this purpose (Directive 92/65) apply in principle.

Separate regulations apply to exports, which are based on the requirements of the respective third country.

For this reason, please enquire about the regulations that apply to your individual concern via the Single Point of Contact (for commercial concerns) or directly at the locally competent Food Control and Veterinary Office.
