PET MOVING SERVICES

Intercontinental Logistics specializes in worldwide pet relocation and is a proud member of International Pet Transporters Association (IPATA).

Our specialty is handling the complete travel needs of your pets wherever and whenever the need arises. Our single focus is to safely and carefully relocate your family pets worldwide. Once we learn about your pet and your travel plans, we will advise the exact requirements and provide a free comprehensive written estimate.

Note: This is a general guideline, as requirements may vary country to country.

FOR BOOKING AND COMPLETING ALL NECESSARY PROCEDURES, WE NEED THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:

  • Complete address including 24 hour Emergency contact telephone, fax number and contact person, details of the sender and receiver
  • Planned transport dates/route, name of pet, age

Please line the inside of the kennel with an absorbent material and place dry pet food on top of the kennel with feeding instructions.

KENNEL REQUIREMENTS

Kindly note that your pet must travel in an IATA compliant pet crate and meet certain additional requirements depending on the airline. Usually it is better to have one animal per container, but the IATA rules state that two animals can share the same container if the animals are under 14 kg (30 lbs) and are of the same species and compatible. It is up to the airline to set their own rules and most of them do..

NORMALLY A PET KENNEL MUST:

  • Have proper space for pet to stand (without touching the top of the cage), turn around and lie down in a natural position
  • Have a solid, leak-proof bottom covered with plenty of absorbent material (do not use straw)
  • Latch securely
  • Container must be clean and constructed of non-toxic materials
  • Be adequately ventilated

PLEASE SEE BELOW COMMON PET KENNEL SIZES (IN INCHES) FOR YOUR INFORMATION:
