The new Chief Vet and the DEFRA Minister say get your horse micro chipped before the deadline of October. At my last FIR they said there were 611000 horses on the register without microchips. They say check your details are correct by entering your microchip number you cannot use the UELN to prevent fraud. They seem to ignore the fact that it is available on the FEI website and commercial databases. All databases use the UELN to identify horses as microchips can move and not scan. Look at the Equine register website which says "Check the data held about you and your equine on the CED is accuarte " if they cannot use spell checker how will they ever spell a horses name.
