Traveling with your horse to a show, event, or trail ride?

Here are the latest intra / interstate movement requirements for horses.

In addition to a health certificate, you may need a negative Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA) test (Goggins) and a negative Equine Piroplasmosis (EP) test. This foreign animal disease is being considered as a standard for movement, just as we have known EIA.
