Animal owners wishing to take their pets abroad with them on their travels are being advised to apply for passports for their furry friends sooner rather than later.
Halifax reveals that the timeframe for completing pet passport documentation is six months long and therefore pet owners should start the process now in order to take their pets with them in August.
Furthermore, Halifax advises customers to ensure that they have the correct kind of pet insurance ahead of their travels.
"All owners who are considering taking their pets abroad on holiday should act now," commented Vicky Watson of Halifax Pet Insurance.
In related news, a report on travel insurance published by the British Insurance Brokers Association (Biba) has revealed that the majority of consumers support government plans to regulate the travel insurance industry.
The research showed that 97 per cent of consumers in the UK back the plans and additionally revealed that 68 per cent of regulated travel insurance providers gave advice about policy limits to their customers.
