Part of Pet transport from Morocco to Europe
Spain applies EU rules. By ferry, the pet must enter through a designated travellers’ point of entry (such as the port of Algeciras), with a document check. By air, Madrid, Barcelona, Málaga, Seville and Valencia have direct flights from Morocco.

Frequently asked questions
Can I take the ferry to Spain with my dog?
Yes, provided you have all EU documents (microchip, vaccine, titration + 3 months, ONSSA certificate) and go through a designated entry point such as Algeciras. Without a valid titration test the pet is refused or isolated.
Why is a titration test needed from Morocco?
Morocco is a "non-listed" third country for rabies in the EU. The titration test proves the vaccine works; the blood draw must happen at least 30 days after vaccination, then you wait 3 months before entry.
Can my pet travel without me?
Yes. If you do not travel within 5 days of your pet, the move becomes "commercial": a TRACES certificate and cargo shipping are required. We handle these formalities and the hand-over on arrival.
