Vaccination changes for those of you with FEI horses

💉FEI VACCINE CHANGES
ℹ️The FEI have introduced a new requirement this year for the recording of Influenza vaccinations. After 3rd February, ALL FEI registered horses need to have their vaccinations recorded on the FEI HorseApp at the time of vaccination by your vet when they attend the horse.

To make this process as easy as it can be, please could you ensure that:

1) The Passport is present at the time of vaccination

2) If you are the Athlete, Groom, Owner or Trainer (or all of the above!), please could you enter the previous vaccinations onto the HorseApp prior to your vaccination date. This will save considerable time for when the first vaccination is given and recorded after 3/2/25.

ℹ️This is a link for how to go about entering the ‘historical’ vaccinations: https://howto.fei.org/content/5/311/en/how-to-add-a-new-vaccination-and-use-the-fei-horseapp-during-the-vaccination-process.html

3) Please also remove rugs prior to vaccination as it may be necessary to photograph both sides of the horse to confirm identification.

If you have any questions please just ask.

Excellent news in my opinion - I just wish the UK would follow suit and also allow bitless and no nose bands etc! As with any tool people can still use them badly but I think it’s better for horse welfare to allow these options

Bitless dressage allowed and nosebands and double bridles optional in new Danish rules
