The register should substantially be in the form shown in Schedule 2 of the Cattle Identification Regulations In accordance with Regulation 29(5) of the Cattle Identification Regulations 1998, registers must be retained by farms for 10 years and 3 years in any other case (e.g. markets) from the end of the calendar year in which the last entry was made.
