Since January 2021 pets travelling to the EU have needed an Animal Health Certificate (AHC). 

Dogs, Cats and Ferrets can travel on an AHC

They need to be microchipped and have a valid rabies vaccination (it needs to have been administered >21 days before the appointment)

The AHC is valid for 10 days after issue, it is a single use document. It allows entry to the EU and onward travel for 120 days.

Here is the official guidance for taking your pet abroad:
