CODE OF CONDUCT
Code of Conduct for the Welfare of the Horse
This code has been developed by the FEI and adopted by EA.
The Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) expects all those involved in international equestrian sport to adhere to the FEI’s
Code of Conduct and to acknowledge and accept that at all times the welfare of the horse must be paramount and must never
be subordinated to competitive or commercial influences.
1. At all stages during the preparation and training of competition horses, welfare must take precedence over all other
demands. This includes good horse management, training methods, farriery and tack, and transportation.
2. Horses and competitors must be fit, competent and in good health before they are allowed to compete. This
encompasses medication use, surgical procedures that threaten welfare or safety, pregnancy in mares and the misuse
of aids.
3. Events must not prejudice horse welfare. This involves paying careful attention to the competition areas, ground
surfaces, weather conditions, stabling, site safety and fitness of the horse for onward travel after the event.
4. Every effort must be made to ensure that horses receive proper attention after they have competed and that they are
treated humanely when their competition careers are over. This covers proper veterinary care, competition injuries,
euthanasia and retirement.
The FEI urges all involved with the sport to attain the highest levels of education in their areas of expertise.
A more detailed ‘long version’ of the Code of Conduct, the Annex A FEI Fair Play in Equestrian Sport and Annex B FEI Code of
Conduct Towards Environment are available on the FEI web site www.fei.org
