 Poster: A snowHead
|
we will be taking the hound again this year, in past years you would only need to check in when travelling back to uk with the reception for the pet passport to be checked etc, they obviously now have one on the uk side, is this because you now have to check in when travelling ul to france direction as well etc
an anyone tell me as am crossing v early in the morning and would be handy to know as i would prefer to just to drive straight on etc?
cheers

Speaking from a Jersey perspective, which should be the same as UK, they check the pet passport on your way out now. There wasn't any check on arrival in France, and there was just the normal check on the way back.
I'm guessing you are aware of the other requirements re health certificate if not on an EU passport etc?

@davejsy, we travelled plenty of times with the dog pre brexit so we know the drill coming back which is essentially the same but with different paperwork etc ie the ahic, but do you now need to present to the uk side on the way out or can you just get straight on the train as we could do pre brexit? as i noticed theres a pet reception in the uk now where as there wasn't pre brexit....
cheers

Yes, in Jersey you had to present on the way out.
Post Brexit if your pet doesn't have a valid EU passport then you will need an AHC.
You also are not meant to take pet food, although we never got checked for this.

My son traveled from Andorra to the UK and back in November with his dog, he had to check in both way. He has an EU pet passport and was not allowed to board when leaving the UK, until he got a AHC despite being told on the french side the EU one would be accepted.

No - not on outward journey pre-Brexit.
Our ferry company (Condor) also charges, used to only be on return journey, but it is now charged both ways.

EU passport becomes invalid if the Rabies jab/booster has been done in UK post-Brexit. I would guess this must have been the case. You need to get any Rabies type stuff done in the EU if you want the EU passport to remain valid, otherwise you will need an AHC.

@ajc2260626, when you get to the check in booths at Eurotunnel, if there are dogs on the booking, you are not given a hanger/sticker to go straight to the train, but a ticket to take to the new pet reception area which is at the far side of the services building. There they will check the dogs chip and Animal Health Certificate or EU passport (UK one is no longer valid), and give you the hanger to put in your car. You then head to French passport control and UK border agencies as before.
