That's because the UK side is not listed as an entry point under the agreements for entry into the EU from an unlisted country.
Unless of course they are going to require all with pets to stop on the French side ?
Or you can't use the train for entry until they sort it.

As I pointed out in an earlier post and yes the UK is listed.The pet animal (dog, cat or ferret) must pass through a travellers' point of entry designated by Member States (see below). The owner must, at the time of entry, contact the competent authority present at the point of entry for the purposes of the documentary and identity checks.

Your spanish dog,like mine, will require the blood test done here to be able to return from the UK into the EU. This is because in the event of a no -deal returning from the UK to spain will be classed the same as reurning to spain from Morocco.
What isn't clear ,& I have asked the question of DEFRA , is a UK dog requires a veterinary health check within 10 days of entering the EU but it does not state that on the part for 'returning EU pets' I have asked for clarification.

Return to the UK
Your pet must have one of the following documents when returning to the UK:
  • an existing EU pet passport (both for UK and EU citizens)
  • the EU health certificate issued in the UK used to travel to the EU
  • a UK pet health certificate (issued outside the UK for travel into the UK only)
Check the routes before you travel. On existing approved routes your documents and microchip will be checked. If you’re not travelling on an approved route talk to your vet about what preparations you need to make before travel.

Because there isn't any yet,all guesswork, but no deal on the 29th & everything changes.

Spanish vets say they havn't been informed of any changes, because there will be no change to the current requirements for pets entering the UK from the EU after 29 March. With or without a deal!

Which as above either means it cannot be used as an entry point or they are going to have to do something UK side .

Again, as I mentioned above on post #27. Ref tunnel crossing. Cheriton/Coquelles is listed as one of the border crossing points in the French PDF (see link below) so I presume there is one!

I have had a reply from DEFRA .
A foreign dog with an EU pet passport does not require a health check to leave the UK.

Good afternoon Gus,


Thank you for your enquiry.


As your dog has a Spanish Passport, there is no need to visit the vets for the health certificate.


Kind regards,

At least that is clarified.
So all he will need is the blood test to return to the eu,show he is above the required limit.(y)

Just had an email from Eurotunnel and free cancellation if pets can’t travel after Brexit. Subject to some terms and conditions.
