Uzbekistan to the UK: Bringing your pet to Great Britain

Bringing a dog or cat from Uzbekistan to Great Britain requires strict adherence to UK import health standards.

  • Microchip: Your pet must be fitted with an ISO 11784/11785 compliant microchip before any rabies vaccinations are given.
  • Rabies: A valid rabies vaccination is required, and since Uzbekistan is not a listed country, a blood titer test is mandatory.
  • Waiting period: You must wait three months after the blood sample is taken before your pet can enter Great Britain.
  • Documentation: You must carry an official veterinary export health certificate signed and stamped by an official veterinarian in Uzbekistan.
  • Tapeworm treatment: Dogs must receive an approved tapeworm treatment administered by a vet 24 to 120 hours before their scheduled arrival.
  • Quarantine: A compliant pet that meets all documentation and health requirements will not be subject to quarantine upon arrival.
  • Guidance: Rules change frequently and should be confirmed with your vet and the official authorities on both sides before you travel.

EU to Uzbekistan: Exporting pets from the European Union

Travelling from the EU to Uzbekistan involves following specific export procedures for your dog or cat.

  • Status: Uzbekistan is not an EU member, so an EU pet passport is not sufficient for entry into the country.
  • Export certificate: You must obtain an EU export health certificate issued by an official veterinarian in your country of departure.
  • Microchip: Your pet must have an ISO 11784/11785 compliant microchip implanted prior to receiving their rabies vaccination.
  • Rabies: A valid rabies vaccination must be administered at least 21 days before your travel date to ensure compliance.
  • Import rules: No specific import permit is required for personal pets, but you must present all original veterinary documentation upon arrival.
  • Carrier rules: Always check with your chosen airline or transport provider regarding their specific requirements for pet travel.
  • Guidance: Rules change frequently and should be confirmed with your vet and the official authorities on both sides before you travel.

Pet travel rules change without notice. Always confirm the current requirements with your vet and the authorities in Uzbekistan before you book, and check the rules for bringing your pet back into the UK.
