| Liz, first you have to have them micro-chipped by the vet. Then you have to have them innoculated against rabies, then after a month, a blood sample is sent to authorities in UK. They will then issue a certificate to say it has taken. You then have to wait 6 months before you can move the animals. If you want the correct details contact QUAFF (Quarantine Aboloition Fighting Fund). I can let you have their email address. Forget to say, if you are not taking them straight away, then you have to keep the rabies jabs going to the date every year. Mine have been done since we`ve been here. |

| You cannot take them via Larnaca. Blood tests can be done in Ankara. |

| If the blood tests have to be done in Ankara, do the animals have to go in quarantine here, when they are brought back after the tests? |

| You can have your dogs bloodwork drawn here and have it mailed to a DEFRA laboratory. In order to satisfy the TRNC's requirements regarding rabies, whilst I was in Kosova I had the dogs' blood drawn in Prishtina and DHL'd to an UK lab. The results were emailed and DHL'd back to me and then I forward them to the TRNC. Piece of cake. |

| Thanks tom i was only asking to see why so many people leave there pets behind and if they read this it might make a few change there minds and take them to the uk.The more i hear the more i see why they leave them behind it would cost between 2 and 4k not worth it with 6 months quarantine as well. |

| They have a DEFRA recognised lab in Ankara. You send the blood there not the dog! |
