From 1 July 2023, special arrangements that were previously in place for pets entering Ireland from the Ukraine are no longer valid.
From 1 July 2023, the strict criteria applying to pets from all third countries will apply to pets from Ukraine.
Your pet must arrive in Ireland with you, or within five days before or after you travel, if it is accompanied by a person authorised by you. Your pet must be accompanied by original paperwork. The maximum number of pets that can travel with you is 5 pets.
Please see Irelands pet travel website at gov.ie - Pet Travel (www.gov.ie) for full details.
In summary, pet dogs, cats and ferret must be:
• Microchipped and have a valid rabies vaccination.
• For rabies blood sampling, there is a 30 day wait after rabies vaccination before a blood test can be carried out. If a satisfactory result has been obtained in the blood test, there is a 3 month wait period post blood sampling before the animal can travel to the EU including Ireland.
• If it can be shown that the pet has continuously been in the EU for six months or more, an EU pet passport should accompany the pet with details of the microchip and rabies vaccination included, and a blood test is not required.
• If the pet does not have an EU pet passport, it will require an EU health certificate which must match this model exactly (CL2013R0577EN0030010.0001_cp 1..1 - f3fe5fe0-c6ed-46c8-9c522c7b9b6f3945.pdf (www.gov.ie)
• All relevant details must be included in the health cert. The health cert should be completed by a local vet and then signed and endorsed by an official government vet within 10 days of the pet’s arrival into Ireland.
• For dogs only, a tapeworm treatment given by a vet is required within 1 and 5 days before arriving in Ireland unless the pet is coming from Norway, Malta or Finland and should also be included in the pet passport or health certificate.
• An advance notice form must be emailed to the point of entry the pet is arriving in to in advance of the movement. This is available at gov.ie - Advance Notice (www.gov.ie)
If the pet fails these compliance checks, it may be refused entry into Ireland, or may be placed into quarantine under official control for the necessary tests or vaccinations, for up to six months. These costs will be borne by the pet owner (official isolation, transportation, pet passport, vaccinations etc.), and may be very considerable.

Усім власникам домашніх тварин, які прибувають в Ірландію з України
З 1 липня 2023 р. вже не діють спеціальні умови, що раніше застосовувалися до домашніх тварин, яких увозять до Ірландії з України.
З 1 липня 2023 р. на домашніх тварин з України поширюватимуться жорсткі критерії, що діють для домашніх тварин з усіх країн третього світу.
Ваш домашній улюбленець має прибути до Ірландії разом із вами або протягом п'яти днів до чи після вашого прибуття, якщо його супроводжує уповноважена вами особа. Разом із вашою домашньою твариною треба привезти оригінали її документів. Максимальна кількість тварин, які можуть подорожувати з вами, становить 5.
Будь ласка, відвідайте вебсайт Ірландії про подорожі з домашніми тваринами за адресою gov.ie - Pet Travel (www.gov.ie) , щоб отримати повну інформацію.
Таким чином, домашні собаки, коти та тхори повинні:
- Мати мікрочіп та дійсне щеплення проти сказу.
- Перед взяттям зразка крові для аналізу на сказ необхідно почекати 30 днів після щеплення проти сказу, перш ніж можна буде провести аналіз крові. У разі задовільного результата аналізу потрібно чекати 3 місяці після взяття зразка крові, перш ніж тварину можна буде ввозити до ЄС, включно з Ірландією.
- Якщо можна довести, що домашня тварина безперервно перебувала в ЄС щонайменше протягом шести місяців, разом із твариною повинен бути її паспорт зразка ЄС з інформацією про мікрочіп і вакцинацію проти сказу. У такому разі аналіз крові не потрібен.
- Якщо домашня тварина не має паспорта ЄС, у неї повинно бути свідоцтво про здоров'я зразка ЄС, яке має точно відповідати цьому зразку (CL2013R0577EN0030010.0001_cp 1..1 - f3fe5fe0-c6ed-46c8-9c52-2c7b9b6f3945.pdf (www.gov.ie)
. Свідоцтво про здоров'я повинно містити всі відповідні відомості. Це свідоцтво має бути заповнене місцевим ветеринаром, а потім підписане й схвалене офіційним державним ветеринаром протягом 10 днів після прибуття домашньої тварини в Ірландію.
- Лише для собак: тварина повинна пройти лікування від цестод у ветеринара за 1 та 5 днів до прибуття в Ірландію, якщо її не привозять із Норвегії, Мальти або Фінляндії. Інформація про це лікування також має бути включена в паспорт домашньої тварини або свідоцтво про здоров'я.
- До пункту в'їзду, куди прибуває домашня тварина, необхідно електронною поштою надіслати форму попереднього сповіщення до початку подорожі. Ця форма наявна на вебсайті gov.ie - Advance Notice (www.gov.ie)
Якщо домашня тварина не пройде ці перевірки на відповідність, її можуть заборонити ввозити до Ірландії або помістити на карантин під офіційним контролем для проведення необхідних аналізів або вакцинацій на термін до шести місяців. Ці витрати несе власник домашньої тварини (офіційна ізоляція, транспортування, паспорт тварини, щеплення тощо), і вони можуть бути дуже значними.

Use the information portal below to find out the requirements your pet must meet to enter Ireland.
Please note the portal will not work if opened in Internet Explorer.
The Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine has no objection to the carriage of pets (cats or dogs when accompanied by their owners) in the cabin of the plane or as excess baggage when travelling on airlines. However, the ultimate decision on where in the plane an animal travels is up to the airline concerned. All pets entering Ireland must be in full compliance with the EU Regulation 576/2013 as outlined on this website.
There is no ban/embargo on pets entering Ireland.
Your pet must arrive in Ireland with you, or within five days before or after you travel, if it is accompanied by a person authorised by you. Your pet must be accompanied by original paperwork.
Airlines operating within the EU are obliged to allow disabled passengers and those with reduced mobility to bring their recognised assistance dogs in the cabin of the plane. All service or assistance dogs travelling must be fully compliant with the rules for entering Ireland as set out in section 2, gov.ie - Pet Travel (www.gov.ie)
Pets from non EU countries (apart from the European countries or territories listed above) may only enter Ireland through:
• Cork Airport
• Dublin Airport
• Dublin Port
• Shannon Airport
• Ringaskiddy port, Cork
• Rosslare Ferry Port
It is a matter for airlines whether or not they will allow animals providing other types of assistance/services, such as emotional support, to accompany passengers in the cabin of the plane.
If you are travelling from a non-EU country, you MUST provide advance notice of your intention to bring your service dog into Ireland, at least 24 hours before your departure time.
Please see the sections above gov.ie - Pet Travel (www.gov.ie) on the requirements to enter Ireland and how to book a compliance check.
If you are transiting Ireland from a non-EU country on the way to another EU country, it may be possible to arrange for the compliance check to be carried out in Ireland, provided the animal is travelling in the cabin of the plane with you and the compliance check can be facilitated at your point of entry.
If you wish to enquire about this, please contact the relevant port of entry by email (found in previous sections), providing the relevant details. A DAFM official will inform you if it is possible to accommodate the compliance check.
You should keep all paperwork with you for the duration of your time in the EU, in case you are asked to present it on entry into the EU country which is your final destination.
The checks can also be carried out in the EU country that is your destination, if they cannot be facilitated in Ireland.
You may transit Ireland with your pet only if:
• the animal complies with the EU rules for pet travel, and
• you have a compliance check arranged in Ireland or in the country of destination
Pets not compliant with EU rules on pet travel must NOT disembark the aircraft in Ireland.
The Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine may facilitate the landing of pets into Ireland by private transport, where possible. Cats, dogs and ferrets must comply with the rules for pet travel as outlined in sections above.
Pets from non-EU countries must enter through a designated Travellers Point of Entry (TPOE) after providing advance notice and undergo a compliance check on arrival. TPOEs are:
- Dublin Port
- Dublin Airport
- Rosslare Europort
- Cork Airport
- Ringaskiddy (Cork) Port
- Shannon Airport
You must contact the TPOE of entry in advance ask if an arrival on private transport can be facilitated. The Department generally cannot facilitate the entry of private yachts with pets into TPOEs, where pets have been in non-EU countries.
The UK’s departure from the EU has resulted in a change in the rules for pet travel between Ireland and the UK. Please click here for further information.
Who to contact
Email address: livetrade@agriculture.gov.ie
- Telephone No. from within Ireland: 01 607 2827
- Telephone No. from outside of Ireland: 00 353 1 607 2827
For information on the pet travel pages of other EU countries please see here
For dogs, cats and ferrets the rules are largely the same to enter other EU countries as to enter Ireland: microchip, pet passport, rabies vaccination and waiting period. There is no tapeworm treatment required to leave Ireland, but you will need to visit a vet abroad to get tapeworm treatment for a dog to return to Ireland, see section 2 on returning gov.ie - Pet Travel (www.gov.ie) .
If you are travelling on holiday or relocating with your pet out of the EU you will need to:
- contact the destination country for entry (certification) requirements – Ireland does not keep this information
- when the country of destination has provided you with details on the health certificate requirements, please follow their instructions. The most likely scenario is that you and your private vet will prepare the pet (vaccinations, blood tests etc.) and provide a health certificate, that you can then bring to your local Regional Veterinary Office to get a government stamp and signature
- make sure you plan well in advance and contact the Regional Veterinary Office at least 2 months in advance of travel to ensure that necessary documentation can be certified by department officials
- allow sufficient time to ensure any required tests can be successfully performed
- ensure your pet qualifies to return to Ireland, see section 2 Bringing your pet dog, cat or ferret into Ireland – the same rules apply to re-enter from a non-EU country whether the pet is usually resident there or if it is an Irish pet who was just there briefly on holidays
The department may not be able to sign documentation for your pet to travel if you have not contacted your Regional Veterinary Office at least two months in advance of travel with your pet.
It is up to each individual airline as to if and how they allow pets to travel in their aircraft. Please note that from July 19th 2021, Dublin Airport Authority (DAA) are no longer allowing Pets to travel outbound as excess baggage. Please contact DAA directly for more information.
If you are taking your dog, cat or ferret out of Ireland to another EU country, or if you are returning to Ireland, you must get an EU pet passport. In Ireland this is issued by your local vet; please contact them directly.
Pets returning to Ireland from holiday must meet the requirements for entering Ireland from that country, as if it was a pet from that country. Please read sections above carefully and prepare your pet for return to Ireland BEFORE you leave .
If you are travelling to sell your pet dog, cat or ferret, for a change of ownership, or if the pet is not travelling with you or within five days of your travel, there are different rules. Please contact livetrade@agriculture.gov.ie , or your local RVO
If any of the following situations apply to you:
• you are buying a dog, cat or ferret abroad and having it shipped to Ireland unaccompanied, that is, you are not going to collect it and travel home with it, or
• your pet is in another country and you want to have it shipped to Ireland unaccompanied, that is, you are not going to collect it and travel home with it
• you are travelling to Ireland to buy, sell or gift a dog, cat or ferret, or if any change of ownership is involved after arrival, including delivery of a purchased or rehomed animal
• if you are travelling with more than 5 pets (the exception is if you are travelling for a dog show/competition, and you will need to provide written confirmation livetrade@agriculture.gov.ie
your pet may not enter Ireland under pet travel rules. These pets must follow a different set of rules.
