We have had a very sad end to the year... having had to put our beloved 14 year old little dog to sleep.

She was a genuine family member and we are keeping her ashes after cremation.

We are planning to come back to the UK in 2014 and I wonder if anyone knows what the rules are with regards to bringing pet ashes?

Yes, I brought ashes with me and a friend brought more ashes over to me in her luggage when she visited Brissybee - sorry for your loss X

Cant help you with an answer, just wanted to say sorry for your loss x

Personally and i hope this doesn't sound cold, but i'd just put them into my checked luggage and leave it at that.

Sorry for your loss xx We too have said goodbye to our little friend
This year and expect another this coming year, we were planning to
put their urns in our checked luggage. I wish you all the very best.

Yes, we actually asked the movers this and they said they were no special rules. Pack them with your stuff to ship or bring them in your luggage. It's all fine.

I'm so sorry about your little friend. It's heartbreaking I know.

why not just mail them over

yes i brought my lovely dogs ashes ..........we were not sure about putting them in the luggage although i wanted them with me.So i ended up putting them in the crate with all our belongings.He was the first box i un-packed, now he is back in the UK like we planned before he passed away

Hi there, really sorry to hear about your loss

We actually had a customer who has asked this before so we contacted AHVLA (Animal Health and Veterinary Laboratories Agency) who are responsible for this area who confirmed that there are NO restriction on the movement of ashes of pets into the UK so you'll be free to bring her back with you.

Do not put them in your hand luggage, we brought our little girl over in our belongings re crate, where we go she goes she was my special girl, so so sorry for your loss been there and give yourself time ............
