Performing animals licences

If you exhibit, use or train performing animals, you must be registered with us. We need to know about the animals and the performances they take part in.

Please apply online or ask us for an application form. We also need to know about any changes to performing animals registrations.

Can I appeal?

Please contact us if you are unhappy with our decision.
