TB Update: Post-Movement Testing

It is that time of year again when the TB diary starts to get very busy! We kindly ask that you be organised and book in any tests with as much notice as possible so we are better able to fulfil your requests.

Post-Movement Testing: As of the 1st August 2023, cattle moving from higher TB incidence areas of England and Wales into the annual surveillance area of England are now required to undergo post-movement testing. Since then, APHA have kindly been sending reminders to carry out such testing when required. From the 1st December 2023, APHA will no longer be sending these reminders. As with pre-movement testing, it is your own responsibility to remember and organise the relevant post-movement TB tests.

Post movement tests must be completed 60-120 days after arrival on the holding and are arranged and paid for by yourselves.

For further information, or to work out if you require a post-movement test, visit the TB Hub website.
