🐱 Exporting Your Cat from the UK to China?

Everything You Need to Know About the Export Health Certificate (EHC) 🇬🇧📄🇨🇳

A full guide by ViolaPets — trusted support for international pet relocation.

Taking your cat to China from the UK is not just about booking a flight.Due to strict import regulations, your cat must travel with an official Export Health Certificate (EHC) issued by a government-authorised veterinarian.

At ViolaPets, we specialise in helping cat owners handle the UK-to-China relocation process — so your furry friend can travel safely, legally, and stress-free.

📋 What is an EHC?

The Export Health Certificate is a multi-page official document that verifies your cat:

• Is in good health

• Has a valid and up-to-date rabies vaccination and Booster

• Has an ISO-compliant microchip

• Meets China’s specific import requirements

📌 Without a valid EHC, Chinese customs will deny entry and may return the animal or require immediate removal.

🔎 Our veterinary partner Dr. Alex is a UK-registered Official Veterinarian (OV) experienced in pet exports, EHC preparation, and travel health assessments. He works closely with the ViolaPets team to ensure everything is correct and timely.

✈️ Exporting a Cat from the UK to China – Step-by-Step

1. Microchip your cat

   • Must be ISO 11784/11785 compliant

2. Ensure the rabies vaccine and Booster are valid

   • The Booster must be in effect on the day of departure

3. Book an appointment with Dr. Alex (OV)

   • EHC must be issued within 3–7 days before export

4. Prepare your cat for travel

   • Airline-approved crate, flight booking, and export documents

⚠️ Important Notes for UK → China Pet Travel

• China allows only 1 pet per passenger for import

• Entry is limited to designated international airports (e.g. Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Chongqing)

🐱 英国出口宠物猫去中国？你需要一份正式的 EHC 出口健康证明！📄🇨🇳

ViolaPets 出口专线服务 | 猫猫出国，从容不慌

将宠物猫从英国带到中国，不只是订一张机票这么简单。根据中国海关的入境检疫政策，所有进入中国的宠物必须持有英国官方签发的 Export Health Certificate（EHC），也就是“出口健康证明”。

在 ViolaPets，我们熟悉中英宠物进出口政策，提供全套猫咪出口中国流程服务，确保您家宝贝能顺利、合规、安全地抵达中国。

📋 什么是 EHC？

EHC（Export Health Certificate）是由英国政府认证的官方兽医 OV签发的正式出口文件，证明猫咪：

• 健康状况良好

• 已完成合规疫苗接种（尤其是狂犬病）

• 植入可识别的电子芯片

• 符合中国的入境检疫要求

📌 没有这份证明，中国海关将拒绝猫咪入境，甚至要求退运或隔离处理。

🔎 ViolaPets 特别合作兽医 Dr. Alex 是英国注册的官方兽医（OV），熟悉中英宠物出口政策，擅长处理 EHC 文件、疫苗审查与出行安排，全程由我们帮您协调。

✈️ 出口猫咪去中国的基本流程（UK → China）

1. 植入芯片（ISO 标准芯片）

2. 完成狂犬病疫苗接种，并确保 Booster 在有效期内

   • 出境时狂犬疫苗（含加强针）必须有效，否则将被拒入境

3. 预约官方兽医（如 Dr. Alex）开具 EHC

   • 通常在出发前 3–7 天签发

4. 准备出行：运输箱、航班预订、文件翻译等

🎯 特别注意事项

• 中国目前仅允许每位旅客携带 1 只宠物入境

• 入境口岸有限（如北京、上海、广州、成都、重庆）

• 需提前安排好疫苗有效期与兽医开证时间

• 所有纸质原始文件需随身携带（包括疫苗本、芯片登记信息、EHC）
