TRACES
The TRACES system monitors the international pet transport of dogs, cats, and ferrets within the EU. It applies to all transport whenever the owner is not traveling the same trajectory within 5 days prior or after the transport of the pet.
Further reading: Wikipedia, EU, gov.UK
The TRACES system implies that your pet travels from an authorized place where veterinary and state inspections will take place, is transported through an legal transporter, and then is checked again upon arrival by a local state vet. Animal Hotel offers pet boarding prior to travel and organizes veterinary inspections and travel documents on behalf of the transport company.
Brexit alert: this sytem applies to EU member states, Switzerland and Norway.
Procedure
The procedure is as follows:
1. Agree a departure date with a pet transport company, and make a timely booking for minimum three working days at Animal Hotel, previous to departure, through form below.
2. Check if your dog complies with our veterinairy requirements, but DO NOT apply flea/tick treatment within a week before travel, NOR worm treatment, as this is done by the vet during pre-travel inspection, by legal requirement.
3. Two weeks prior to travel send to [email protected]:
- scanned copies of all used pages in the blue pet transport,
- destination address (previously registered at local state veterinary service).
4. Pay estimated costs prior to arrival at Animal Hotel. We will write the amount in our answer to your booking, instructions will be enclosed. Unforeseen costs may be charged later on, e.g. vet bills.
From the pet transport company we need a copy of the vehicle authorization for pet transport, mentioning name and license plate number, and a state issued authorization for being pet transporter. Per traces document, the date and time of departure from Animal Hotel is to be indicated, and estimated date and time of arrival at destination, plus the name of the responsible person during transport. We also ask transporters to fill out a list of animals that go on each trip.
Costs
Costs can differ per amount of dogs. Please contact us for a quote.
ALWAYS included in the prices are the obligatory healthcheck and wormer, but we also apply advantix as an anti flea, tick and mosquito repelent. Our main goal is ALWAYS the health and the safe travelling of the animal so we only work together with trusted pet Transporters.
After arrival at destination
Please note that pets need to stay at their indicated destination address, awaiting state veterinary inspection, with a maximum of 48 hours. Traces paperwork needs to be archived for at least three years.
Season
We do not offer this service in high season: July, August and Christmas (16 Dec - 9th Jan).
