HEALTH SAFETY OF HORSES

Examination on arrival

• Vaccination against equine influenza (last injection at least 7 days before arrival at the CHI Geneva)

• Clinical examination with body temperature measurement

• Check of the temperature measurement of the last 3 days before arrival at the competition and check of the self-declaration of good health form

If the clinical examination is suspicious, the FEI Delegated Veterinarian may decide to keep the horse, and those that have travelled in the same transport, in quarantine in separate boxes in the national and international stables of the CHI Geneva, and in the most serious cases to refuse entry to the competition site.
