UK to France pet route

London to Paris Pet Taxi

A private family-run journey with your dog or cat

Silver Pet Travel arranges private journeys for owners travelling with their pets from London and the UK to Paris and wider France.

The short answer

Taking Your Pet from London to Paris

If you are moving or travelling with a dog or cat from London to Paris, we can arrange a private pet taxi where you travel with your pet from your UK address to your destination in France. The Channel crossing is planned with you in advance, and Eurotunnel may be used where it suits the journey.

We do not give fixed journey times or prices on this page, because both depend on your pickup point, destination, date, crossing availability and the needs of your pet. Send your details and we will confirm what is possible.

Preparation by direction

UK to France Is Not the Same as France to UK

Owners remain responsible for correct, valid documents. Rules can change, so always confirm against official sources before you travel.

London to Paris (UK to France)

  • Pets leaving Great Britain for France are normally covered by the animal health certificate (AHC) process for GB-issued documents.
  • Dogs, cats and ferrets need a microchip and a valid rabies vaccination, and the AHC is arranged with an official vet shortly before travel.
  • Check the official guidance for the exact timing, validity and any extra rules for your pet.

Paris to London (France to UK)

  • Rules for entering Great Britain are different and are checked on return, including requirements for dogs such as tapeworm treatment within the official window.
  • Travelling both ways? Prepare each direction separately rather than assuming one set of documents covers both.
  • See our dedicated Paris to London page for the return direction.

London to Paris Pet Taxi Questions

Do you run a London to Paris pet taxi?

Yes. We arrange private journeys for owners travelling with their dogs or cats from London and the wider UK to Paris and other parts of France.

Can my pet travel without me?

No. This is a private pet taxi for owners travelling with their pets, so you travel in the vehicle with them.

What documents does my pet need to go from the UK to France?

Requirements depend on your pet and can change. Please read the official GOV.UK guidance and speak to your vet; owners are responsible for ensuring documents are correct and valid.

How much does it cost?

The price depends on your collection address, destination, date, passengers and pets. Send your details and we will confirm a quote.

Is the return journey the same as going out?

No. Entering Great Britain has different requirements from leaving it, so each direction should be prepared separately.
