You can contact your Passport Issuing Organisation to rule your horse out of the food chain.

You (or your agent) have a legal responsibility to notify the Passport Issuing Organisation of a change in food chain status. 

If you are unsure who you Passport Issuing Organisation is you can use our free Equine ChipChecker. Simply enter your Microchip number (I don't have a Microchip number) and you will not only be able to see who your Passport Issuing Organisation is and details on how to contact them.
