Pets are part of the family, but bringing them with you can be challenging. International requirements vary from country to country, so it’s critical to work with quality international pet transport companies that are up-to-date with current import regulations. Make a pet packing checklist with our Have pet, will travel article.
Moving pets may be simpler within Europe, but make sure that your pet has an official EU Pet Passport that shows your trusty companion has obtained the necessary medical checkups and vaccinations to cross borders safely. Also, be aware of varying pet relocation laws, even within the EU.
If you're moving a cat or shipping a dog, and your company is paying for your relocation, make sure they know about your pets. In the Expatica article Strange but true expat tales, an HR manager was vexed when an employee needed to transport his pet lizard by taxi and expected the company to pay for it. In the end, the cost was not high compared to the overall cost of the relocation, so they did pay.
