Can I take my pet to Ireland or Britain with me?

Cats and dogs may travel in your car free of charge on the Irish Sea. For pets travelling on the North Sea, please click here for more details. For health and safety reasons your pet is not allowed onto the passenger decks (with the exception of guide dogs) and must remain in your vehicle.

If you are travelling as a foot passenger, small dogs are only permitted in the passenger areas (Passenger Lounge at the port and onboard) if they are secured for the duration of the crossing in a pet traveller case. However, this is at the discretion of Stena Line personnel and if requested, passengers may be required to place the animal on the car deck in the dedicated kennel area.

Guide, hearing and autism assistance dogs are welcome in the Passenger Lounge at the port and onboard the craft.
