What is involved when traveling with a dog to Germany?

Answer by  patti (29325)

There is no quarantine. Paperwork is required to assure the dog's health and up-to-date vaccinations. Transporting a dog overseas is brutal for the dog and should be avoided unless you plan to stay for a few years.

I think there are certain permits one needs to travel with a dog to Germany. The dog certainly needs a health examination and certain vaccinations. Also, if you are flying on a plane, you will usually need a special cage for the dog, and you will need to pay extra to transport the dog, of course.

It would be wise to get the dog's vaccination records translated into German just in case it would be necessary to visit a Veterinarian in Germany. Visit the German government web site and the web site for your home country. You don't want to be surprised by something like a required quarantine.
