Animal health offices provide administrative and regulatory services relating to the health, welfare and movement of animals. They may deal with enquiries from livestock keepers, animal businesses, veterinary professionals and members of the public, and provide information about disease risks, reporting requirements and the rules that apply to keeping or moving animals. Typical services include recording or responding to reports of notifiable animal diseases, arranging inspections or investigations, and administering controls such as movement restrictions, identification requirements and official documentation. Some offices support animal imports and exports, issue or process licences and certificates, or work with local authorities and veterinary teams on animal welfare and disease prevention. In Great Britain, relevant responsibilities may involve the Animal and Plant Health Agency, while requirements and services can differ across the UK.
