Article 9

1.   Insofar as the Commission has adopted a delegated act pursuant to Article 19(1) with regard to pet animals of one of the species listed in Part B of Annex I, the non-commercial movement of pet animals of that species into a Member State from another Member State shall be subject to compliance with the conditions laid down in paragraph 2 of this Article. 2.   Pet animals of the species referred to in paragraph 1 may be moved into a Member State from another Member State only if they fulfil the following conditions: (a) they are marked or described according to the requirements adopted pursuant to Article 17(2); (b) they comply with any preventive health measures for diseases or infections other than rabies adopted pursuant to Article 19(1); (c) they are accompanied by an identification document duly completed and issued in accordance with Article 29. 3.   Pending the adoption of the relevant delegated acts referred to in paragraph 1, Member States may apply national rules to the non-commercial movement of pet animals of the species listed in Part B of Annex I into their territory from another Member State, provided that such rules are: (a) applied proportionately to the risk to public or animal health associated with the non-commercial movement of the pet animals of those species; and (b) not stricter than those applied to trade in animals of those species in accordance with Directives 92/65/EEC or 2006/88/EC.
