2025 by the Numbers: A Truly Global Year

2025 was a milestone year for Relopet International — not just in recognition, but in real, measurable impact.

Total pets relocated in 2025: 288+
Total destination countries: 25+ countries worldwide

In 2025, we transported pets to destinations including (but not limited to): Europe & UK, Australia, New Zealand, United Arab Emirates, Hong Kong, Philippines, Brazil, United States, Mexico, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, India, South Korea, South Africa, Vietnam, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Colombia, Costa Rica, and more.

Expertise in High-Complexity Destinations

In 2025, Relopet handled a significant number of relocations to some of the world’s most regulated pet import destinations, including:

Australia & New Zealand (quarantine-heavy, documentation-intensive)
EU & UK (post-Brexit regulatory changes)
Asia & Middle East (airline, permit, and clearance complexity)

Each move required precise coordination between veterinarians, airlines, government authorities, and international partners — a level of expertise we’ve built over years of hands-on experience.
