Fédération Equestre Internationale 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 the welfare of the horse must be paramount and must never be subordinated to competitive or commercial influences at all times.
- Competition horses’ welfare must take precedence over all other demands at all stages during preparation and training. This includes good horse management, training methods, farrier and tack, and transportation.
- Horses and competitors must be fit, competent and in good health before they are allowed to compete. This encompasses medication use, surgical procedures that threatens the welfare or safety, pregnancy in mares and the misuse of aids.
- 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
- 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.
- 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, available in English and French, can be obtained from the FEI, HM King Hussein I Building, Chemin des Delices 9, 1006 Lausanne Switzerland. Telephone: +41 21 310 47 47. The Code is also available on the FEI’s website: www.fei.org.
