Why Pet Med Direct can’t post orders outside the UK
Pet Med Direct is a UK-based pet medicines supplier. Because veterinary medicines and many animal health products are tightly regulated, we do not post orders outside the UK.
Veterinary medicines are legally controlled
Many pet treatments (including prescription medicines) are classed as regulated veterinary medicinal products in the UK. These products must be supplied under strict UK rules covering who can supply them, how they’re stored, and the checks that must be completed before dispatch.
Prescription items must follow UK prescribing and supply rules
For prescription-only pet medicines, we can only process orders in line with UK requirements (including prescription validity and supply records). Sending these items abroad would involve different legal requirements and import rules in the destination country, which we’re not able to support through our UK supply service.
Customs and import rules can stop pet medicines at the border
International parcels containing pet medicines can be held, delayed, rejected, or seized by customs. Many countries require import permits, local authorisations, or specific documentation. To prevent failed deliveries and compliance issues, we dispatch within the UK only.
Product approvals and labelling vary by country
A product that is approved for sale in the UK may be licensed or labelled differently elsewhere. Even if the brand name is the same, the authorised uses, pack information, or formulation may not match local requirements.
Safe delivery conditions can’t be guaranteed internationally
Some pet products are sensitive to temperature and transit time. International delivery and customs delays can make it hard to guarantee products arrive within suitable conditions.
What this means for customers outside the UK
-
Pet Med Direct does not accept orders for delivery addresses outside the UK.
-
If you live outside the UK, please source pet medicines through a local veterinary practice or approved supplier in your country.
