Please note FEI changes to horse ID requirements at higher levels

Friday, 16 December 2011

Riders and owners please note FEI changes to horse ID docs.

We have been advised by the FEI that as from 01 July 2012,  the EA horse ID documents on their own will no longer be valid at higher-level FEI events. EA ID documents will continue to be recognised at lower level FEI competition and all EA competition.

Horses will now be required to have either a FEI passport or a FEI Recognition card (to accompany their EA ID document) for the following levels of competition:

Dressage – 3* and above

Eventing – 3* and above

Jumping – World Cup classes

Endurance – 2* and above

Vaulting – 2* and above


You will need to purchase an FEI recognition card to accompany your ID document to compete at the above levels, or, alternatively apply for an FEI Passport, which will need to be completed and signed by a recoginised vet. Both documents are valid for 4 years from the date of validation. If you purchase a recognition card to accompany your existing ID document, the date on the Recognition card will void the current date on the EA ID document.

Equestrian Australia apologises for any inconvenience this may cause, however the FEI will be unwilling to let you compete without the correct documentation. If you have any further questions please contact  the National office 02 8762 7777 or felicity.dubois@equestrian.org.au
