Transporting colt from Surrey to Cape town, SA?

[Drummer]

Hi,

I am contacting companies to get quotes on the above but they are taking a couple of days. So wondered if anyone here had any experience of the above and a rough price?

It's for a 10 month old Appaloosa colt. Thank you

Try BBA we board for them and have horses all the time for SA.

Thank you, I have been in touch with them along with a few others and am just still waiting on quotes. Just wondered if anyone here had any rough ideas on the price? It is for my boss, so a great excuse to come on here.

Sorry, can't help with cost, but I've always used John Parker when I've imported horses and they've always been excellent.

Probably about £10,000 as there are long quarantine periods at both ends becuase of EVA (this end) and the need to get them vaccinated and actibely protected against African Horse Sickness at the other end. I also think that there are very few quarnatine stattions so that can delay things too.

BBA Shipping and IRT both in Newmarket

Costs around 9-12k depending upon tests-30 days pre export quarantine is required as well
