Cutting cost of pet travel

I have found a better way to take pets to Europe to avoid paying the costly £150 fee for the animal health certificate that is required every time you travel there from the UK.

It’s a policy that came in as a direct result of Brexit.

While in France, I got my dog a French passport, which means that every time we visit, we no longer have to pay for health certificates.

As we go to France several times a year, this saves us a lot of money.

Getting a French passport is simple – just take your dog to a vet there with their immunisation history. It takes around 30 minutes to process and costs €150.

However, do bear in mind you need a French address.
