If you are the breeder of the animal we will be able to send you a new microchip and marking chart.  Your vet will have to insert the transponder and sign and stamp the marking chart. Once we receive the marking chart and fee of €15 we will update the passport.

If you are not the breeder of the animal you will need to complete the DNA comparison test (See below)

You will need to complete a DNA comparison application (See below). You must be the registered owner of the pony you are testing. 

(If it transpires that the pony is not the correct pony we will carry the transfer fee to another passport for you)

The form requires information on you, the owner and the pony. Please complete all fields. Please return the form with correct fee to the CPBS.

On receipt of the application we will send a DNA sampling envelope to you. Your vet will take the sample and send it to CPBS.

Results from the lab can take three to four weeks.

If the transponder is registered on the CPBS database, it is evident that you have the wrong passport and will have to apply for a duplicate passport Duplicate Passport.

If the transponder is not registered you can complete the DNA comparison test. If the results are positive we will be able to record the transponder in the ponys passport. If the pony does not match you will need to do some research on the history of the pony.
