Travelling to Amsterdam with Pets

To take your dog, cat or other domestic animal to Holland with you, you will require the following veterinary documents:

European Passport for Animals
Effective 1 October 2004, owners of dogs, cats and ferrets who live in the European Union (EU) need a European animal passport if they wish to travel within the EU with their pet. This uniform document replaces similar passports and documents which are currently in use.

In addition to general information, the passport proves that the pet has been inoculated against rabies. Be aware of the fact that owners must ensure that their pets are micro-chipped or tattooed.
Pets from non-EU countries traveling to Holland also need to be inoculated and micro-chipped or tattooed. They need a veterinary certificate with the relevant information, issued by an authorised vet.
