How Dänemark handles your pet
Key points
Denmark: a pet dog must be registered in the Danish Dog Register no later than 4 weeks after arrival
Cats may not be moved to Denmark under 15 weeks of age (12 weeks at rabies vaccination plus the 21-day validity wait)
Documentary and identity checks at a Danish travellers' point of entry are free of charge, though the same checks may carry a fee in other EU member states
Denmark's 13 prohibited dog breeds admit no exemption, but a dog owned before 17 March 2010 is covered by the transitional arrangements
Denmark's rabies status is worth stating precisely, because its own territory does not share it: Denmark has been free of classical rabies since 1982 and European bat rabies occurs only sporadically in Danish bats, whereas classical rabies is ENDEMIC in Greenland, where polar foxes spread it to other mammals
Danish pages that cover Denmark, Greenland and the Faroes together must not be read as one jurisdiction
