Transfer of ownership must be notified to the ORIGINAL Passport Issuing Organisation (PIO) within 30 days of purchase. Failure to do so is an offence.

The IDHS (GB) will only process transfers relating to our own passports. Owners with over-stamped passports originating from other PIOs must return the passport to those PIOs for transfers. This is a precaution against fraudulent transfer.

For IDHS (GB) passports ONLY:
The vendor(s) must sign this form at the time that the horse is sold. It must be given to the new owner, together with the horse’s passport. Passports must never be withheld, for any reason. They must remain with the horse at all times.

The IDHS (GB) will not transfer ownership without signed consent from the vendor(s). If the previous owner is deceased, the new owner should ask the Executor of the Will or the solicitor dealing with the deceased person’s estate to sign.

The new owner should complete the Transfer Of Ownership Form either on a paper form or electronically, the paper form and the passport, a cheque to our Passport Administrator. You can also pay on line by Debit/Credit card
