Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment her Department has made of the potential impact of the end of the EU Pet Travel Scheme on UK pet owners travelling to the EU; and whether the movement of pets will form part of discussions on strengthening the UK's trading relationship with the EU.

This Government remains committed to concluding the SPS agreement ahead of the next UK-EU Summit on 20 November 2026. Instead of getting an Animal Health Certificate each time they travel, pet owners will be able to get a multiuse pet passport valid for travel to the EU.
