| Ok, I've worked out how to post now.
So, we're looking to be moving to Basel area with the family and pets.
We'd like to bring our 2 dogs, 1 snake and 2 african land snails, overland rather than by air from the UK. Where would I find the necessary information regarding the bureaucracy surrounding such a matter?
Further more, does anyone have any views on the differences between International School BAsel and Minerva School (SIS)? I know Minerva does IGCSEs but I've read these don't translate well back into the UK system if you move back half way through the 2 year course.
What is the quality of the International School teaching like? Unlike in the UK, there doesn't seem to be published league tables for school performance in Switzerland. Perhaps there is, and I just haven't found the right site yet.
Any information would be great.
Oh! 1 last thing. The move will be dependant on possibilities for horse riding, loaning/owning ponies. Any advice on the like?
Thank you

There is no need for me to give further info on the dogs as Meloncollie has given, as usual, tons of information. I just wanted to ask what kind of snake you have? Once again, depending on the type, you may need a CITES certificate. Does your snake appear on this list? Look under reptiles to see if it does.

In any event, you may require an import permit for the snake and you will have to demonstrate that you have appropriate housing for the snake.
