Rejected petition Review the animal health certificate process to make it simpler and less complex
Rejected on
The current animal health certificate is unnecessarily complex and far too costly. It also lasts for only one trip and for a four month period.
It it bureaucratic and costly. Make it simpler, longer lasting, and more reasonable so that people can take their pets abroad with less risk of getting it wrong and at a price people can actually afford.
