Create a UK Pet Passport and Improve EU–UK Travel Arrangements for Pets

Create a UK Pet Passport and Improve EU–UK Travel Arrangements for Pets — 21 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

We call on the UK Government to create a UK Pet Passport and to work with the European Union to establish a simpler, more affordable system for travelling with pets between the UK and mainland Europe.

Additional details

Since Brexit, UK pet owners have faced high costs and added bureaucracy when travelling to the EU. Every trip now requires an Animal Health Certificate costing around £200–£300, even for short or repeat journeys. This is costly for families who wish to travel with their pets safely and responsibly. Before Brexit, UK pet passports allowed affordable, straightforward travel while maintaining high welfare standards. There is no clear reason why such an effective system cannot be reinstated.
