ScotEID works closely with the Scottish livestock sector & Scottish Government to design, develop and deliver solutions to ensure robust traceability and minimise legislative difficulties.
Scottish sheep, pig & cattle keepers can register with ScotEID in order to meet or minimise current legislative requirements.
The look of the website has been tweaked slightly as part of a system update. The changes are largely superficial but bring some important usability improvements.
Many thanks for your patience if any call you made to the Huntly office was delayed or you had to leave a message during the lockdown period. We are now steadily building capacity in the office whilst abiding with Government guidelines. With all good luck and guidance we will be back to full capacity for the Autumn sales season, and thereafter for the transition from CTS to ScotEID at the end of November, recording cattle births, deaths and business to business movements.
Please note that our Terms and Conditions and Data Protection Policy have been updated. Amongst other updates, references are made to the requirements involving the replacement of CTS at the end of November 2020. The update also includes the addition of the word “operator”, which is defined in the Terms and Conditions .
Minister for Rural Affairs Mairi Gougeon made the following announcement today:
Following the announcement by the Government on Monday evening, the Huntly office will be closed today Tuesday. The office operation will be reconfigured to handle urgent calls and requests. We expect to have a very reduced staff available as from tomorrow Wednesday 25th to handle urgent calls. In the meantime do not hesitate to email us on help@scoteid.com and we will provide assistance.
Many thanks
Josie Forth, Office Manager.

A GB research consortium named FIELD are looking at farmer experience of and attitude to endemic disease. The focus is on lameness in sheep and BVD in cattle and the output may help shape future policy direction. The survey should take about 20 minutes to complete. For every survey completed £5 will be donated to Royal Scottish Agricultural Benevolant Institution. The survey will close at the end of March.
