A safer journey with your pet

Practical preparations before a car journey.

Updated: 11.09.2026 · Information for pet owners

Prepare ahead

Help your pet get used to a carrier or appropriate restraint before travelling. Keep your veterinarian’s contact information and necessary health records available.

On the road

Do not let your pet roam freely inside the car. Plan the journey around their needs and discuss any travel concerns with your veterinarian. For international travel, check official destination requirements well in advance.
