FEI documents are valid for 4 years from the date of issue. If a Horse is wanting to compete in any FEI event and a FEI document is necessary, it must be valid.
Step 1: You must find the Horse in question on the FEI Database either by FEI ID number or name and open the Horse Detail page.
Step 2: You need to click on Renew and enter the date to which you want the passport to be valid.
Your National Federation will be invoiced accordingly.
