Leisure, relocation, medical, show, adoption, sale or rescue.
“Holiday” and “permanent move” describe your life. Border law may instead ask about ownership, resale, owner accompaniment, number of animals, direction and transport mode.
Leisure, relocation, medical, show, adoption, sale or rescue.
Personal non-commercial, transfer/commercial or unaccompanied confirmation.
Cabin, checked baggage, manifested cargo or charter.
Sale, adoption, rescue or transfer can move the animal outside a personal non-commercial pathway even when the journey looks like a family trip.
Some systems distinguish the same journey, a narrow time window, a longer separation or no owner travel. The permitted number of pets may also matter.
Cabin, checked baggage, manifested cargo and private charter are transport modes. They do not by themselves decide the legal purpose.
A holiday creates a second import process. Export from A, entry into B, export from B and re-entry into A are four separate sets of requirements.
Usually one export and one import, but owner timing, employment/move evidence, airline mode and destination rules still control the legal pathway.
Can be harder than relocation because the outward and return permits, tests, certificate windows and carrier acceptance must all overlap.
A short journey can still be commercial or a transfer because legal classification follows the transaction and ownership, not the number of nights.
This may still qualify under a narrow accompanied window in one jurisdiction and fail it in another. Written route-specific confirmation is required.
