Travelling with a cat or dog is now much easier with the new EU pet passport available for any vet. All cats and dogs must have a passport containing details of a valid rabies vaccination. Until July 2008, Ireland, Malta, Sweden and the United Kingdom also require proof that the vaccination has been effective.
In addition to that, treatment for ticks and tapeworm (echinococcosis) is required in order to entry into Ireland, Malta and the United Kingdom. Finland and Sweden require a tapeworm treatment.
An animal has to be identified by an electronic microchip. A clearly readable tattoo is also acceptable until July 2011, except if you are taking your animal to Ireland, Malta and the United Kingdom where a microchip is already required.
