Citizens of the European Union who wish to bring their pet to the Greek Islands may do so but the following rules apply:
* Have your pet microchipped - before any other procedures are carried out; your pet must be fitted with a microchip so that it can be correctly identified.
* Have your pet vaccinated - after the microchip has been fitted your pet must be vaccinated against rabies. There is no exemption to this, even if your pet has a current rabies vaccination.
* Arrange a blood test - this is the third stage in the process and must be completed after the vaccination. Your pet must have a blood test to ensure that the vaccine has provided a satisfactory level of protection against rabies.
* Obtain PETS documentation - you must ensure you have arranged a pet passport; this can be organised by your local veterinary clinic.
* Arrange correct transport - your pet must travel with an approved transport company on an authorised route.
