So Why Use a Professional Pet Taxi from Europe to Kent
Transporting your pet across borders can be complex without professional help. A trusted pet taxi from Europe to Kent ensures your pet arrives safely, comfortably, and in full compliance with UK regulations. Whether you’re relocating, travelling for work, or reuniting with your pet, Europtaxi provides a secure and efficient door-to-door service tailored to your needs.
What Your Pet Needs Before Entering the UK
The UK has strict rules for pets entering from Europe. Our team helps you follow each step and checks all documents before the journey begins.
Your pet will need:
- Microchipping: This must be done before any vaccinations.
- Rabies vaccination: Administered at least 21 days before travel.
- Animal Health Certificate: Issued within 10 days before entering the UK.
- Tapeworm treatment: Required for dogs 24 to 120 hours before arrival.
We confirm each requirement is complete before collecting your pet.
Why Choose a Pet Taxi from Europe?
Using a professional pet taxi provides a safer and more reliable experience for your pet compared to flying or public transport.
Benefits of our service include:
- Door-to-door transport – We collect and deliver to your chosen locations.
- Secure vehicles – Climate-controlled vans with safe crates for pets of all sizes.
- Trained handlers – Our team monitors your pet’s wellbeing throughout the journey.
- No airport hassle – Avoid the stress of airline cargo and customs queues.
If your destination is in the South East, our Kent Pet Taxi service ensures a smooth and quick handover on arrival.
Preferred Route into the UK
We travel through France using the LeShuttle pet travel route via the Eurotunnel. This is the fastest and most pet-friendly method for entering the UK.
Why we use the Eurotunnel:
- Pets remain in the vehicle for the 35-minute crossing
- Less movement and noise compared to ferry services
- Quick access to Kent via Folkestone
After arrival, we continue directly to your home or specified location.
Preparing Your Pet for the Journey
A few small steps can help make the journey easier and more comfortable for your pet.
Here’s what we suggest:
- Visit your vet early to arrange the Animal Health Certificate
- Get your pet used to the crate or harness they’ll travel in
- Pack essentials like food, medication, and a favourite toy or blanket
- Share feeding routines and special care instructions with our team
We also provide specialist Dog Pet Taxi and Cat Pet Taxi services based on your pet’s needs.
