Title: Pig movement paperwork
Post by: Russpig on August 18, 2017, 09:45:27 pm

Is there such a thing as pig movement book/papers just like the sheep and goat movement? Asked my rural payments and they said I may have to go to my trade standards office about one?

All pig movements are made on line and the haulier needs a paper copy for their records. If you weren't the haulier when you bought the pigs you can print a copy and file it as a record or keep a separate movement book.

Yes we are registered with animal health etc for keeping pigs.
All I had to do was phone scoteid and sign off movements over the phone.
No paperwork but would rather have some to keep a record
