Passportforpets have been shipping dogs to New Zealand for over 3 decades and we will be happy to answer all your questions or concerns. The flight time is around 24 hours from London (with stopovers via the Far East) and you will need to prepare your pet around 6 months ahead of travel. For security reasons, it is not possible for you to access your pet during their journey at any point. If you would like to know more about our services and how we operate, please do contact us and we'll do our best to assist you. If you decide to go ahead with transporting your pet then we can guide you through all the necessary veterinary work including the required vaccinations and inspections.
Pets travelling from Rabies Controlled Countries such as the United Kingdom are required to do a 10 day stay at quarantine in New Zealand. There will be certain pre import tests and treatments required and they will be inspected for ticks on arrival. It is essential that you have the correct paperwork with you and it is also necessary to make advance arrangements with the quarantine station prior to your pet arriving in New Zealand.

Animals must be shipped in IATA approved transit kennels that allow the animal to stand up without touching the top of the box, lie down and turn around. It is a requirement that dogs are shipped as manifest cargo and not as excess baggage.
