 OWNERSHIP CHANGES:

If you have purchased a horse/pony with a BSPA Passport document and have not yet returned the document to BSPA for ownership change processing then youu MUSTdo so immediately or within 30 days of purchase.. Not to do so is an offenceunder E.U. Passport Legislation (Commission Regulation 504/2008)..

•  If the above applies then you MUSTreturn the passport to BSPA with your full details and date of purchase so that we can transfer the equine into your name thus ensuring accurate keeper details is maintained.. "Transfer of Ownership""forms are at the back of a BSPA Passport for this use. If they have been removed then your details and a copy of the 'bill of sale' will suffice.. We reserve the right at our discretion to contact the last recorded owner to ensure the equine left them under bone-fide- circumstances..
•  Current fees for ownership changes incl. return by 2nd class recorded delivery mail is £4.00
•  PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT BSPA IS REQUIRED BY DEFRA TO 'REPORT' ALL SUCH LATE ADVISORY NOTIFICATIONS TO OUR LOCAL TRADING STANDARDS WHO HOLD PASSPORT REGULATION ENFORCEMENT POWERS..

 If any of the above circumstances apply to you, please act immediately to ensure your document is brought up to date..

If you are unsure please call the BSPA Telephone advice line between 10am-4pm Monday-Friday incl..
