The animal transportation is one of the major transportation processes that have taken place in
America and many other different parts of the world. A lot of people require their pets to be
transported which need different companies to have their live feed shipped in certain
destinations. But did you know, that without certain documents, you shall not be allowed to
transport any animal from one place to another?
Yes, it is true, without proper documentation it is completely illegal to transport any animal. In
this article we are going to make it clear for you, the documents you shall need for transporting
the animals.
1. ATC document:
The exact transportation rules specify that all journeys must be logged which includes the date,
time and also the duration of the journey. For the journeys which shall take place for more than
eight hours, involving any species of animals as a part of economic activity, you should have an
ATC document.
2. Journey log:
In case of the journey is more than eight hours, and involves exporting farm, dispatching
livestock or the unregistered domestic equidae, then a journey log is essential instead of the
ATC document. If a farmer is transporting his/her own animals within 50 kilometers, then the
ATC documents is not required.
3. For journeys more than 65 km:
If the business includes the transport of animals for more than 65 km but the duration is less
than 8 hours, then valid transporter documentation is necessary for the short duration journeys
along with the valid certificates depicting drivers and handler’s competence is necessary. The
competence certificate could be a training certificate or any test certificate passed by the
driver.
4. For journeys more than 8 hours:
In case of the journeys for more than 8 hours, it is necessary to hold a valid authorization
of transportation for long journeys, a similar competence certificate for the handler’s and
drivers, and also a valid container/vehicle approval certificate. The last document in this section
is necessary for inspecting whether the animals are transported in a safe container or not.
5. Transporter Authorization:
For less than 8 hours journey
If the journey time is less than 8 hours, and you have to make a lot of transportation for your
business, then it is essential to have a type 1 authorization document. This will be valid for a
period of five years.
But there are certain factors to attain this certificate. They are as follows:
You must have an established business within UK.
You have to show that, the business has efficient staffs, procedures and equipment’s
for meeting the rules of animal welfare during the transport.
Your business does not have any record for serious animal transportation conviction in
the past three years.
And lastly, you have the valid certificates for competence for handlers and drivers to
manage the transportation process efficiently.
For more than 8 hours journey
In case of the more than 8 hours you shall have a type 2 documentation which includes the
above documents and vehicle/container authorization certificate along with details for
recording the movement of your vehicle.
