Pet transport route
The shortest door-to-door run from France to London: Lille to the Coquelles pet check-in is barely an hour, then the tunnel and the M20 put you at your London address in under four hours, with your pet beside you all the way.
Lille sits just 70 minutes from the Eurotunnel terminal, which makes this the quickest France-to-London journey we run. Perfect for families relocating, students heading to London universities, and anyone connecting onward from Euston or St Pancras to the rest of the UK.
Dogs entering Great Britain need a tapeworm treatment given by a vet 24 to 120 hours before arrival - we remind you of the exact window when you book. Cats and ferrets are exempt. Everyone needs a microchip, rabies vaccination and an Animal Health Certificate or EU pet passport.
We drop you at any London address - home, hotel or station. If you are continuing north by train, we can time the arrival for your departure from Euston or King's Cross and help you and your pet to the concourse.
Your chauffeur collects you and your pet at your address in Lille at the time that suits you. From there it is a calm, direct drive of around 175 miles - roughly 3 h 45 min door to door - in a private, climate-controlled vehicle. Your dog or cat stays beside you the whole way: no cargo hold, no handovers and no other animals on board, with comfort stops whenever your pet needs one.
At the Eurotunnel terminal we handle the pet check-in together - the microchip scan and document check usually take about 15 minutes - then your pet stays with you in the car for the 35-minute crossing. On the other side we drive straight to your final address in Central London, whether that is a hotel, a new home or a family doorstep.
The fare for Lille to Central London is fixed before you book and starts from £465. It covers the vehicle, your dedicated driver, tolls and as many comfort stops as your pet needs. The Eurotunnel ticket is paid separately at the terminal, and we never add weekend or holiday surcharges.
