FEI Registration 2010 - IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Equestrian Australia
Notice regarding FEI Registration and Participation in International events
In the past the FEI made allowances for riders and horses, who were not FEI-registered prior to competing in International events and let them complete their registration after they had competed. This meant that the results gained at the competition were validated by the FEI once the registration was complete.
As of 1 January 2010, if riders or horses are not registered PRIOR to competing in an International event, they will be immediately DISQUALIFIED and any results they achieve at the event will not be valid, nor will any ranking points be accumulated.
Even if the rider or horse is registered after the event has taken place, the results from the event, in which they competed unregistered, will no longer be included in their FEI results list or ranking points as they have in the past.
TO AVOID DISQUALIFICATION AND CONSEQUENCIAL UPSET, RIDERS MUST ENSURE THEY AND THEIR HORSE ARE FEI-REGISTERED PRIOR TO COMPETING IN AN INTERNATIONAL EVENT IN 2010!! The Equestrian Australia National Office will take no responsibility for riders competing unregistered. It is the responsibility of the rider and/or horse owner to register with the FEI.
