Can someone please clear up an issue i have just now.I have found a wonderful breeder and have fallen on love with one of the pups( ive been searching a very long time).There seems to be a bit of confusion to the new rules since brexit..i think that pups now need to have rabies vaccination therefore cannot travel until 15 weeks but the breeder has found a courier willing to take the puppy to me but at 9 weeks.The breeder says they only need a rabies vaccination if going from uk to northern ireland and not the other way around..who is right? I really need to know soon before i miss out altogether but i dont want to reserve a puppy that i may not be able to get,any advice about this matter greatly appreciated. x

I honestly think you would be better off speaking to a Defra licensed pet transporter who is doing NI to U.K. runs, I think your breeder is right but it’s all very confusing at the moment unfortunately. I can recommend Daisybrook International Transport and am sure Mathew with be happy to give you some advice. Good luck.

Thank you i will send them a message x

Yep, breeder is right!

Unfortunately at the moment, no one knows. Not even the government. Have a read of this: https://obedienceuk.news/wordpress/the-kc-welcomes-select-committee-inquiry-after-pet-travel-brexit-u-turn/?fbclid=IwAR2lTdFUgtk9rfYDP1EiodfGtXzCSjoc-XCtjQxC9w5ABSLw1zFES5uTO0k

I'm not so sure having been onto the DEFRA website (which is a minefield since the UK finally left the EU!!)

I found this -

"Pet travel documents

Your pet must have one of the following documents when entering or returning to GB:

    an EU pet passport issued in the EU (or in GB if issued before 1 January 2021), or a pet passport from another Part 1 listed third country
    the animal health certificate (AHC) issued in GB used to travel to the EU – which you can use to re-enter GB for up to 4 months after it was issued
    a GB pet health certificate (for travel into GB only)

Your pet will not need this documentation if it’s entering GB from:

    NI
    the Channel Islands
    the Isle of Man "

I think you'd best contact DEFRA directly for the situation 'POST LEAVING THE EU'.
