Canadian Equine Identification Program
The Canadian Equine Identification Program (CEIP) is an initiative led by Equestrian Canada to develop a national equine identification and traceability system. The CEIP is a program and platform with the capacity to address equine owner concerns about equine health, disease control, verifiable identification documents, proof of ownership, ease of compliance with federal and sector regulations and lifetime security.
The CEIP is currently in the development stage with an expected launch date in 2025.
Premise Identification
Premise Identification Numbers (PIDs) are issued by Provinces. They are free of charge and take only a few minutes to enroll. Please contact your provincial agriculture office to enroll land parcels. In some provinces it is mandatory to enroll while in others it is still voluntary.
