Alert! Starting Next Year, the EU Will Require Microchips

Pet Travel Blog reports a change in travel requirements for the EU. Microchips will be required for entry. The blog is a great resource for all kinds of information about pet traveling. Check it out!
 
From the article:

Starting in July, 2011, all EU countries will require that your pet have a microchip and all documentation supporting the microchip number to permit entry. Some EU countries will accept all major brands of microchips and others will only accept the 15 digit ISO microchips. If your pet is micro chipped with a microchip other than a 15 digit ISO microchip, it is recommended that you carry your own microchip scanner.
