    The biggest thing will be the change in the six month waiting period. You used to have to have your animal vaccinated against rabies, then wait six months, then have a blood test to show the all clear, then you could move.

    Now you vaccinate and 21 days later you can travel and enter the country with your pet passport and don't have to spend half a year in quarantine. Nice one.

    Listed non-EU countries also include Canada and Australia - which is really cool in case I ever get the urge to return to the northern hemisphere!
