Japan will host the equestrian competitions of the 20th Asian Games Aichi-Nagoya 2026, which will be held from 19 September to 4 October 2026. To facilitate the smooth cross-border movement of horses, the animal health requirements for horses competing in the Asian Games 2026 have been established. Under the requirements, the horses are required to stay only in countries/regions that have bilateral animal health requirements with Japan during the 60 days prior to the commencement of the 10-day pre-export quarantine before departure for Japan. These countries/regions have already undergone the required risk assessment procedures. Among these countries /regions, the horses are required to undergo the pre-export quarantine in a specific country/region, which was designated by the organizing committee for logistical reasons. Other details, including testing and vaccination requirements, are also set out in the requirements.
