Sea transport is only possible where the vessel operator accepts animals and the destination authority permits arrival by sea. It is most common for livestock and for some pet moves between the UK and Europe.
01
Feasibility first
Many routes do not allow animals to arrive by sea. We confirm this before quoting.
02
Ferry routes
Some ferry operators accept pets on approved routes, under their own conditions.
03
Livestock vessels
Livestock exports by sea are subject to specific export licensing and welfare rules in each country.
Tell us the route, the animal and your preferred dates. A coordinator will review the details and reply with a written quotation or questions — nothing is booked until you and our team confirm.
