Art. 139.1
Every horse entered for any competition at CNs or ClMs (see Appendix D)
in a foreign country (see GRs 141.2), and all horses entered for other Cls,
ClOs, Championships, Regional and Olympic Games, whether at home or in foreign
countries (see GRs 141.2), must have an official, valid FEI Passport, or a
National Passport approved by the FEI and accompanied by an FEI Recognition Card
and, when applicable, an FEI registration number, as a means of identification
and to establish ownership.
Horses
taking part in CNs and ClMs (see Appendix D) in their country of residence are
not required to have such a passport as is mentioned in paragraph 1. All such
horses must be properly registered and identifiable and, unless there is no
national requirement for equine influenza vaccination in the host country and in
the country of origin all horses must have a valid vaccination certificate.
EQUINE INFLUENZA VACCINATION, VET.
REGS. ANNEX VII
(except
events taking place in NZL & AUS)
All
horses and ponies for which an FEI Passport, or a National Passport approved by
the FEI has been issued, must have the vaccination section endorsed by a
veterinarian, stating that it has received two injections for primary
vaccination against equine influenza, given between 1 and 3 months apart. In
addition, a booster injection must be recorded as having been given within each
succeeding 6 months, subsequent to the second injection of the primary
vaccination. None of these injections must have been given within the preceding
7 days including the day of the competition or of entry into the competition
stables.
The
above are the minimum requirements for influenza vaccination. Both primary and
first and subsequent booster injections should be given according to the
manufacturer's instructions which will fall within the stipulation of the FEI
ruling.

TO BE PUBLISHED VERBATIM IN ALL SCHEDULES
THE FEI CODE OF CONDUCT
FOR THE WELFARE OF THE HORSE
The Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) expects
all those involved in international equestrian sport to adhere to the
FEI’s Code of Conduct and to acknowledge and accept that at all times the
welfare of the horse must be paramount and must never be subordinated to
competitive or commercial influences.
1.
At all stages during the preparation and training
of competition horses, welfare must take precedence over all other
demands. This includes good horse management, training methods, farriery and
tack, and transportation.
2.
Horses and competitors must be fit, competent and in good health before
they are allowed to compete. This encompasses medication use, surgical
procedures that threaten welfare or safety, pregnancy in mares and the misuse of
aids.
3.
Events must not prejudice horse welfare. This involves paying careful
attention to the competition areas, ground surfaces, weather conditions,
stabling, site safety and fitness of the horse for onward travel after the
event.
4.
Every effort must be made to ensure that horses receive proper attention
after they have competed and that they are treated humanely when their
competition careers are over. This covers proper veterinary care, competition
injuries, euthanasia and retirement.
5.
The
FEI urges all involved with the sport to attain the highest levels of education
in their areas of expertise.
A full copy of this Code can be obtained from
the Fédération Equestre Internationale, Avenue Mon-Repos 24, CH-1000,
Lausanne 5, Switzerland. Telephone: +41 21 310 47 47. The Code is available in
English & French. The Code is also available on the FEI’s website: www.horsesport.org.
FOR THE
INFORMATION OF ORGANISING COMMITTEES
STABLE SECURITY/STEWARDING AT INTERNATIONAL EVENTS
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS TO ENSURE IMPLEMENTATION OF
VRs Art. 1005.2.5, Annex X
1.
ACCESS
TO STABLE AREA
The stables must be completely enclosed within a suitably restrictive
perimeter (stable area) which will act both as a deterrent to the admission of
unauthorised persons and to the exit of horses. The area must be sufficiently
large to allow horses to be evacuated from the stables in an emergency but still
remain within the confines of the perimeter.
Whenever possible the stable area must include only stables; lorries,
caravans, etc., should not be permitted within the area unless specifically
needed as accommodation for horses and/or grooms.
Access to stables must be limited to those persons indicated in VRs Art.
1005.2.5. It is essential that the official issuing authorised access be a
responsible person of seniority within the Organising Committee.
2.
CONTROL
OF ACCESS
A control system must operate at all entrance gates so that there is an
efficient and reliable method of identifying those who enter and leave the
stable area at any time.
Extra vigilance must be used in establishing the identity of persons and
reasons for entering the stables during the night.
3.
STEWARDING
OF STABLE AREA
At least one stable steward, directly responsible to the Chief Steward,
must be present or readily available in the vicinity of the stable area 24 hours
a day during the entire duration of the event. He may be assisted by deputies as
required. The steward/deputies must regularly patrol the stable area, without
establishing any predetermined pattern, to discourage any form of illegal
practices or abuses to horses. Any misdemeanours must be reported immediately to
the stable steward who must, in turn, report to the Chief Steward.
The duty of the stewards is therefore to safeguard the welfare of the
horses and to prevent any form of illegal practices.
4.
GROOMS
It is appreciated that grooms wish to remain with their horses during the
night. Only grooms duly registered with the OC are permitted to do so.
The Person Responsible must ensure that his/her grooms, or any other
authorised persons with access to his/her horses, are familiar with the security
and stewarding procedures operating at the event attended.
5.
MOVEMENT
THROUGHOUT EVENT GROUNDS
Movement of horses between the stables, practice, grazing and main arena
must be strictly controlled. The optimum layout for Jumping and Dressage
disciplines is attached. It is appreciated that flexibility will be required
depending on the requirements of other disciplines.
6.
STEWARDING
OF PRACTICE ARENA
The Chief Steward must ensure that all practice arenas are adequately
stewarded all the time that they are officially open. He must also ensure that
these arenas are subject to random control when they are officially closed.
7.
GRAZING
AREA
It is recommended that a grazing area be provided at all outdoor events,
and that this be subject to random control. If available, horses must only be
grazed or walked in hand within this area.
The Foreign Judge/TD at events will be specifically asked to check that
the relevant requirements are met as reasonably as can be expected, depending on
the discipline, and to indicate clearly any shortfalls, following which
consideration may be given to altering the category of the event in future.

Veterinary Aspects "A"
This page must
be published verbatim in all schedules. It refers to:
-
veterinary examinations, horse
inspections and passport controls;
-
equine influenza vaccination
(note: some events take place, either at venues or in countries which impose
more stringent equine influenza vaccination requirements than the FEI. Any
deviations from the FEI requirements must be clearly indicated as an addition to
the text in Veterinary Aspects "A" which must be published verbatim in
the schedules
-
sampling for prohibited
substances;
-
Medication Control Programme.
2.
Veterinary Aspects "B"
This page must
be fully completed and returned

3.
Code of Conduct
This page
must be published in all schedules and it is recommended that it

4. Order Form
for FEI Sampling Kits
The MCP is effected in Groups I and II, by Testing Teams
of veterinarians and technicians and by Laboratories all directly instructed by
the FEI.
At international events outside the MCP area or at those
which are covered by the MCP but at which sampling is required when the Testing
Teams are not present, the Veterinary Commission/Delegate will operate in
accordance with Vet. Regs Chapter VI.
To provide for this eventuality, FEI Sampling Kits should
be ordered directly on the form provided, from:

FOR INFORMATION
Requirements from the International Alliance of Equestrian Journalists (IAEJ)
Helping
the media to provide good coverage for your competition is one of the cheapest
forms of publicity available. Stories in newspapers, magazines or on the radio
or television will do a lot for your event, for your sponsors and for the
overall visibility of equestrian sport in your area. While media requirements at
the top levels can be elaborate, attention to some very simple and easy details
can do a lot to help the media exposure of even the smallest competition.
