HEALTH CERTIFICATE REQUIREMENTS IMPORTANT NEW INFORMATION - PLEASE READ Vermont state law requires that any horse coming into the state from another state must be accompanied by a health certificate/Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (“CVI”) prepared by a veterinarian at the horse’s point of origin. The Vermont State Veterinarian has informed us that this requirement will be enforced, both by random spot checks at shows and also at truck weigh stations. A CVI is only good for 30 days, but there is an alternative for horses coming into the state for exhibition or competition (an “Exhibition Permit”) that extends the effectiveness of the CVI to 180 days without an additional inspection by the veterinarian during that period. (Please note that the Coggins will need to be timed so that it is good for the entire 180-day period). Due to the hectic travel schedule of our exhibitors as well as the length of our circuit, we expect that most exhibitors will wish to obtain the 180-day Exhibition Permit. Please see Exhibition Permit Protocol below, provided to us by the Vermont State Veterinarian: Exhibition Permit Protocol for Vermont Shows and Fairs Horses imported into Vermont for the purpose of exhibition may travel during Vermont’s Fair season on an Exhibition Permit. The term “Exhibition” is defined in the Rules Governing the Importation of Domestic Animals, Including Livestock and Poultry as the following: “Exhibition” means any spectator event in which a domestic animal is exhibited or entered in competition and usually receive awards or prizes. The term “Exhibition Permit” is defined in the Rules in the following manner: Exhibition Permits: 1. Persons transporting domestic animals into the state for exhibition or competition during the fair season may obtain an exhibition permit from the commissioner prior to entering. 2. Animals listed on the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection will be exempt from the requirement for a new Certificate of Veterinary Inspection every 30 days for the duration of the exhibition permit. All tests listed on the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection must be kept current for the duration of the exhibition permit. 3. Exhibition permits will expire in 180 days. To obtain an Exhibition Permit for horse importation into Vermont, complete the following steps: 1. At the owner’s request, the licensed, accredited veterinarian must examine the horse(s) and fill out a standard health certificate, Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI), either in electronic or hard copy format, for the horse(s) traveling. a. If the horse originates from out of state and is attending only Vermont events, the destination/consignee address field on the health certificate must state: “Vermont Shows and Fairs 2014”. b. If the horse originates from out of state and is attending events across New England, the destination/consignee address field on the health certificate must state: “New England Shows and Fairs 2014.” [Please note: if a horse is going to be traveling to states other than VT, those additional states must be contacted for their specific requirements; see Section 3.a below]. 2. After examining the horse and completing the CVI, the veterinarian must call the Vermont Agency of Agriculture at 802-828-2421 (between 7:45 AM and 4:30 PM, Monday-Friday) to request an exhibition permit number. When calling, the veterinarian must state they are requesting an exhibition permit. This will ensure that the Agency’s Animal Health Office issues a permit that is good for 180 days. The veterinarian must also provide the owner’s name and mailing address and the number of horses traveling. 3. The exhibition permit number will be issued over the phone by the Agency. a. Please note: The VT exhibition permit number only applies to importation into VT and does not permit importation of the horse into other states. If the horse is also traveling to other New England state(s) during the same season, permit number(s) may be needed from each of those other state(s). It is the responsibility of the owner and veterinarian to check with each state of destination to determine other states’ import requirements. 4. The veterinarian must then write the number on the CVI. 5. The veterinarian must then provide the animal owner with their copy of the CVI and forward other copies to their state agriculture office within one week as required by law. 6. The Vermont Agency of Agriculture will mail the exhibition permit to the horse owner [at the address provided by the veterinarian]. 7. The horse must travel with the CVI and the exhibition permit. Please note: i. The horse must have both the CVI and the Exhibition Permit before entering the state, and ii. The CVI must be dated within 30 days before the date the horse moves interstate to its first show/competition. For more information on the Vermont CVI/Exhibition Permit requirements in the form of a “FAQ,” prepared by the VT Department of Agriculture, visit our website at www.vt-summer festival.com/prize.php or VT Agency of Agriculture Animal Health Office at agriculture.vermont.gov/animal_health/animal_movement/ equine, or 802-828-2421. 6.
