Form: Pet travel: reporting non-compliance with the PETS regulations
Updated: Pet Travel Scheme: Non-compliance returns for dogs, cats, and ferrets updated.
Form PT45 is a list of questions which the checker/carrier can use when inspecting animals and documents to ensure they comply with the Pet Travel Scheme. It is not mandatory to complete and return this form.
Form PETS08 should be used to report a failure to comply with the Pet Travel Scheme. The completed form must be sent to APHA. The checker/carrier should keep a copy and give a copy to the customer for information.
Form PETS09 should be used to contact a vet following a non-compliance with the Pet Travel Scheme, where the confirmation can prove compliance under certain administrative circumstances. The checker/carrier should keep a copy and may give a copy to the customer for information.
Form IV62 should be used to report discrepancies in documents to the Imports Team at the Centre for International Trade at Carlisle. This form should be used by Local Authority Trading Standards and by the checker/carrier for non-routine non-compliances not detailed on the PETS08 or where extra information would be of benefit.
