Buying a Tortoise in the UK

Welcome to Tortoises For Sale, the UK's dedicated marketplace for shelled reptiles. Unlike general pet sites, we focus purely on tortoises, ensuring a safer environment for buyers and breeders.

We require all sellers of Annex A species (like Hermann's, Spur-thighed (greek) and Indian Star tortoises) to state their Article 10 Certificate status, helping you buy with confidence and legality.

Safe Trading Checklist

  • Check the Paperwork: Always ask to see the Article 10 certificate for Annex A species.
  • Well-Started Only: Avoid buying fresh hatchlings (under 8 weeks). Ensure they are eating well and active before taking them home.
  • Setup First: Ensure you have your tortoise table and UV lighting ready before collecting your new pet.
  • Avoid Couriers: Whenever possible, collect in person to inspect the tortoise's health.
