❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about horse passports and choosing the right provider

⏰ How long does the process take?
Typically 2-6 weeks from application to receiving your passport. Some providers are faster than others—check their individual processing times.
💰 What does it cost?
Fees vary by organisation, typically £25-£80. Competition passports may cost more. Each provider sets their own prices.
🤔 What if I choose the wrong organisation?
Don't worry! All organisations listed here are officially approved. Choose based on your horse's breed, your location, or intended use.
📋 What documents do I need?
Usually: application form, vet identification, proof of ownership, and microchip details. Each organisation will provide a specific checklist.
