One of the most common mistakes some pet owners make is using the wrong health certificate, which can cause travel delays, denied entry, or even losing the Eurotunnel ticket.<\/p><p style=\"font-size:18px\">In this blog, we share a real-life experience from our pet taxi journey from Paris to London via Eurotunnel, highlighting the importance of correct paperwork for stress-free pet transport.<\/p><hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:26px\">Our Pet Taxi Service Ensuring a Smooth Journey<\/h2><p style=\"font-size:18px\">While it is the pet owner\u2019s responsibility to check and provide the correct documentation, we always do our best to review each pet\u2019s travel documents when needed. This helps ensure a hassle-free entry into the UK.<\/p><hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:26px\">Initial Contact and Document Review<\/h3><p style=\"font-size:18px\">A customer contacted us for pet transport from Paris to London for her dog, Sparkle. She Emailed us pictures of:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li style=\"font-size:18px\">A health certificate issued in the U.S.<\/li>\n\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">A tapeworm treatment record from France<\/li><\/ul><p style=\"font-size:18px\">Upon review, we noticed the health certificate was too blurry to read and the tapeworm treatment was correctly administered, but there was a timing issue \u2014 her planned arrival at the Eurotunnel Calais Pet Reception would exceed the 120-hour limit by 1 hour and 39 minutes.<\/p><hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:26px\">We immediately informed the customer and offered two solutions:<\/h3><ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li style=\"font-size:18px\">Adjust the pick-up time from 8 AM to 6 AM to meet the 120-hour treatment window.<\/li>\n\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Re-administer the tapeworm treatment and wait 24 hours before traveling.<\/li><\/ol><p style=\"font-size:18px\">We also reassured her that, in case of any issues at the Eurotunnel, we would assist her in finding a solution\u2014whether arranging transport back, locating a nearby vet, or helping with accommodation.<\/p><p style=\"font-size:18px\">The customer chose to adjust the pick-up time to 6 AM, ensuring compliance.<\/p><hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/><p style=\"font-size:18px\">Our driver travelled to Paris the day before and stayed overnight to ensure a timely 6 AM pick-up. Upon arrival at the pick-up location, we were greeted by Sparkle, a beautiful Shih Tzu, and her caring owner, who affectionately referred to Sparkle as her daughter. It was clear from the start how much love and attention Sparkle received.<\/p><p style=\"font-size:18px\">With Sparkle comfortably settled in the car, we set off toward Calais, following the A1 and A26 motorways. After a three-hour drive, we continued on the A16 and took Exit 42 to reach the Eurotunnel Pet Reception.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-be370e51 wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/petshuttleabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/7c1ad50d-0885-4690-bced-22b2d7e92de2-1-3.webp ,https:\/\/petshuttleabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/7c1ad50d-0885-4690-bced-22b2d7e92de2-1-3.webp 780w, https:\/\/petshuttleabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/7c1ad50d-0885-4690-bced-22b2d7e92de2-1-3.webp 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 150px\" src=\"https:\/\/petshuttleabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/7c1ad50d-0885-4690-bced-22b2d7e92de2-1-3.webp\" alt=\"Pet Taxi Welcome to Pet Shuttle Abroad\" class=\"uag-image-7205\" width=\"768\" height=\"743\" title=\"7c1ad50d-0885-4690-bced-22b2d7e92de2 (1)\" loading=\"lazy\" role=\"img\"\/><\/figure><\/div><hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/><p><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:26px\">Unexpected Issue at UK Customs: Wrong Health Certificate<\/h2><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:18px\">Document Check at Eurotunnel Pet Reception<\/h3><p style=\"font-size:18px\">At the Eurotunnel Pet Reception, the UK border authorities refused Sparkle\u2019s entry because her health certificate was valid for EU travel but not for Great Britain (GB).<\/p><p style=\"font-size:18px\">They offered two options (\u20ac75 each) at a recommended vet nearby:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li style=\"font-size:18px\">Obtain a new health certificate valid for UK entry.<\/li>\n\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Get a European Pet Passport for future EU-UK travel.<\/li><\/ul><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:26px\">Choosing the European Pet Passport<\/h3><p style=\"font-size:18px\">The owner chose the European Pet Passport, which allowed for future trips without needing new certificates. However, pet owners should know that for non-EU pets, the passport mainly serves as a vaccination record and doesn\u2019t replace the need for the correct health certificate when entering the EU.<\/p><p style=\"font-size:18px\">We drove 30 minutes to the vet, where the process took another 30 minutes. The vet transferred Sparkle\u2019s details into the pet blue passport, making her eligible for UK entry.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-ef95675e wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/petshuttleabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/471427fb-0bf0-40a0-9150-1196542aaeb6-1.webp ,https:\/\/petshuttleabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/471427fb-0bf0-40a0-9150-1196542aaeb6-1.webp 780w, https:\/\/petshuttleabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/471427fb-0bf0-40a0-9150-1196542aaeb6-1.webp 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 150px\" src=\"https:\/\/petshuttleabroad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/471427fb-0bf0-40a0-9150-1196542aaeb6-1.webp\" alt=\"European Pet Passport\" class=\"uag-image-7207\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" title=\"471427fb-0bf0-40a0-9150-1196542aaeb6 (1)\" loading=\"lazy\" role=\"img\"\/><\/figure><\/div><hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:26px\">Understanding Health Certificate Requirements for UK Entry<\/h2><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:18px\">Key Facts About the GB Health Certificate:<\/h3><p style=\"font-size:18px\">For non-EU pets traveling into the EU:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li style=\"font-size:18px\">Must be signed by an official vet in the country of departure<\/li>\n\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Valid for 10 days for EU entry<\/li>\n\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Remains valid for 4 months within the EU or until rabies vaccine expiry<\/li><\/ul><p style=\"font-size:18px\">Important: This certificate cannot be used for UK entry.

The first check was carried out by French authorities, followed by British passport control. At the UK border, a DEFRA (Department for Environment, Food &amp; Rural Affairs) officer conducted a thorough inspection. The officer checked:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Our DEFRA Type 2 Animal Transport Authorisation<\/li>\n\n<li>Vehicle compliance<\/li><\/ul><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Sparkle\u2019s travel documents<\/li><\/ul><p style=\"font-size:18px\">The officer also noted that Sparkle\u2019s carrier was slightly small and recommended unzipping it for added comfort. However, the owner preferred to keep Sparkle inside.
