Transporting a horse from Switzerland

[Heelsdown]

Hi all,

I need a horse transporting from Martigny in Switzerland to Cheshire. Has anyone got any contacts or good transport companies to use?

Also what documents are required for entry to the UK?

Thanks!

I've used Parkers before for travel from Germany and pony is going back there at the end of the month with them. Fill out their online quote form and somebody will be in touch straight away, they can then tell you exactly what is needed but from memory he had to have a vet certificate stating he was fit to travel and it had to be signed within 10 days of travel so not a big window and obviously his passport will need to go with him. Costs are very reasonable for a shared load, £375 plus VAT coming over 2 years ago and this trip is £400 plus VAT and they take saddle, bridle and rug in the price.
