Rabies vaccine at ≥12 weeks of age, after the microchip; valid from 21 days after the primary course; boosters within validity (Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/688, Annex VII Part 1).

EU animal health certificate (model in Annex III to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/705), issued by an official vet of the origin country, or by an authorised vet and then endorsed by the origin competent authority, with copies of the vaccination details attached. After the entry check it stays valid for onward travel inside the EU for 6 months or until the rabies vaccination expires, whichever is earlier.

Signed declaration by the owner (or authorised person) that the movement is non-commercial, on the model in Part 2 of Annex V to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/705, attached to the certificate.

Enter through a travellers' point of entry designated by the Member State of arrival and present the pet for the documentary and identity check there. Each Member State publishes its own list (the European Commission's index links them all).

Signed declaration by the owner (or authorised person) that during the transit the pet had no contact with rabies-susceptible animals and stayed in the vehicle or inside the international zone of the port or airport. Without it, the titer test required from unlisted countries applies.

At most 5 dogs, cats or ferrets per non-commercial movement (exception for registered events, animals over 6 months); owner travels within 5 days if an authorised person accompanies the pet.
