Calais to Ashford is the reverse of our shortest Kent-to-France corridor. Pickup from anywhere in central Calais, Coquelles, Sangatte, Marck, or surrounding Pas-de-Calais coast, brief stop at a partner vet in Calais for the mandatory UK tapeworm treatment (dogs only), Eurotunnel Le Shuttle crossing in 35 minutes, then door-to-door delivery anywhere in Ashford, Tenterden, Wye, or surrounding Ashford Borough villages. Total: 4-5 hours at a flat £210 fare.
The extra hour versus the outbound direction is the vet visit for the tapeworm treatment. UK Border Force requires praziquantel administered by a vet between 24 and 120 hours before UK arrival. For Calais-based pets we arrange this with a partner vet practice in central Calais the same morning as the Eurotunnel crossing - the timing window is tight but reliable.
This corridor is convenient for Ashford and wider East Kent owners who have driven over to France for the day, on holiday, or to collect a pet from a Calais-based handover, and need professional pet transport for the return. We also handle direct Calais pickups for pets arriving via ferry from elsewhere in Europe (rare) or by onward road transport from Spain, Italy, or beyond.
The £210 flat fare includes the central Calais pickup, vet visit and tapeworm treatment (this alone usually costs €60-80 for owners doing it themselves), and door-to-door delivery anywhere in Ashford and surrounding Kent. The Eurotunnel ticket is not included - you pay for it separately, or we can book it for you at no extra cost. For cats and ferrets, no tapeworm requirement so journey is even faster - typically 3-4 hours.

Calais to Ashford pet taxi: common questions
Is same-day Calais to Ashford service possible?
Yes for cats and ferrets (no tapeworm requirement). For dogs, the tapeworm treatment timing means we usually need 24+ hours of notice to schedule the vet appointment within the legal window before the Eurotunnel crossing.
Does the £210 include the tapeworm vet fee?
Yes - the vet visit and praziquantel treatment are included in the flat £210 fare. Owners doing this themselves typically pay €60-80 for the vet appointment alone, plus the cost of the medication.
Can I be in the car with my pet for the Calais to Ashford journey?
Yes - owners are welcome to travel with the pet at no extra cost. Many do this on the return leg of a French holiday or for the reassurance during the Pet Reception process.
Do you do this route for emergency pet returns?
